Shakib Arrives in Riders Camp Ahead of Sylhet Phase

Bangladesh ace all-rounder Shakib al Hasan arrived in Rangpur Riders camp today (January 25) ahead of the upcoming Bangladesh Premier League, country’s lone franchise-based T20 tournament. 

Shakib, who is featuring for Rangpur Riders in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League, left for Singapore after their opening game as his eye problem that troubled him during the last ICC World Cup in India returned to cause him further discomfort. The all-rounder arrived on January 24 from Singapore.

The Sylhet phase is scheduled to start from January 26 as the Riders are slated to take on Khulna Tigers in the opening game of the Sylhet phase at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium.

Bangladesh Cricket Board on Wednesday (January 24) said that Shakib will go through conservative treatment for his eye-problem.

The Bangladesh captain has been diagnosed with a retinal condition in his left eye and this revelation comes after the player reported concerns with respect to his visual functioning.

“Shakib has been complaining of subtle issues with his left eye. After consulting Ophthalmologists in Bangladesh and abroad and after multiple eye assessments, it was confirmed that he is suffering from Extrafoveal Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSR) of the left eye. It has been decided that a conservative approach will be adopted for managing the issue for now,” Bangladesh Cricket Board senior physician Debashish Chowdhury said in a press release.

“Extrafoveal Central Serous Chorioretinopathy is a condition that affects the retina, leading to visual disturbances. The medical team overseeing Shakib’s case is optimistic about managing the condition effectively with a conservative approach,” he said.
