“Nothing significant was revealed throughout the diagnostic process, so it appeared that he had muscle spasms. He should be able to carry on playing, despite the injury “The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s (BCB) media manager, Rabeed Imam, confirmed this to AFP.
After being hospitalized with chest pains, Sri Lankan batsman Kusal Mendis has been cleared to participate in the upcoming second Test against Bangladesh in Dhaka. In the 23rd over of Bangladesh’s innings, Mendis left the field due to chest pains and was brought to the hospital for rapid diagnosis.
“Diagnoses were inconclusive, and it appeared that he was suffering from muscle spasms. If he wants to keep playing, it shouldn’t be a problem “The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s (BCB) media manager, Rabeed Imam, confirmed this to AFP.
ECG results “came out clear” and physicians suspect “muscle spasms” caused his discomfort, according to Mahinda Halangoda, Sri Lanka team manager.
A BCB physician told the publication that Mendis was suffering from dehydration prior to the match.
Prior to his 48-run second innings, Mendis made a half-century in the first innings of the Chittagong Test match, which ended in a tied match.
In the two-Test series, he wasn’t the only one to have discomfort.
Cramping caused Bangladesh opener, Tamim Iqbal, to retire on the third day of the first Test, after reaching a century for his country.
On the fourth day, on-field umpire Richard Kettleborough had to leave the field and turn over his duties to reserve umpire Joel Wilson.
