St George's: Shakib Al Hasan will lead Bangladesh in the second and final Test against the West Indies after captain Mashrafe Mortaza was ruled out with a knee injury, the Bangladesh Cricket Board said here on Friday.
"Mortaza has been ruled out of the second Test after he failed to recover from his injury," the board announced in a press release.
"Vice-captain Shakib Al Hasan will lead the side while left-arm spinner Enamul Haque replaces Mortaza in the team."
Mortaza fell clumsily on his right knee when bowling during the first Test and spent the last two-and-a-half days in recovery.
"Mortaza has injured the cartilage in his right knee. This was confirmed after an MRI performed three days ago. Advice from a specialist knee surgeon is being sought to confirm the management of the injury," the board added.
Bangladesh need only to draw the second Test to fulfill a long-held dream of their first series victory after they took a 1-0 lead with a 95-run victory in the opening game at St Vincent.
The second Test gets under way at the Queen's Park Stadium Complex in St George's, Grenada, on Friday.
Squad for 2nd Test: Shakib Al Hasan (c), Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Junaid Siddique, Raqibul Hasan, Mohammad Ashraful, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mahmudullah, Shahadat Hossain, Enamul Haque, Rubel Hossain. 12th man: Mehrab Hossain.
