An X-ray after the game confirmed a fracture which has ruled him out of Bangladesh’s last match of the tournament against Australia in Pune on November 11.

“Shakib was struck on his left index finger early in his innings but continued to bat with supportive taping and painkillers,” Bayjedul was quoted as saying by ICC on Tuesday.

“He underwent an emergency X-ray in Delhi after the game which confirmed the fracture on the left PIP joint. Recovery is estimated at three to four weeks. He will leave for Bangladesh today to begin his rehab,” he added.

During the run-chase, Shakib hit a match-winning 82 from 65 balls, comprising 12 fours and two sixes, to guide his side to a three-wicket victory over Sri Lanka.
Earlier in the day, he recorded figures of 2/57 with the ball.

The fine all-round performance by Shakib in a tense game of the ODI World Cup 2023 fetched him the Player of the Match award. The win on Monday was the first win for Bangladesh against Sri Lanka in the ODI World Cup history.

Bangladesh, who have lost six out of their eight matches, are already out of the semifinals race at the ongoing World Cup. However, they will have the motivation of securing a Champions Trophy 2025 berth when they lock horns with Australia.
