Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan has been ruled out of the Cricket World Cup 2023 due to injury.

Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan has been ruled out of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 following an injury to his left Index finger.

The all-rounder recently led his side to a three-wicket win in an ill-tempered game against Sri Lanka but suffered a finger injury in the clash.

Hasan suffered a fracture in his left index finger while batting in the match against Sri Lanka on Monday.

An X-ray after the game confirmed the fracture, thus, ruling him out of the game. 

Bangladesh's National team physio Bayjedul Islam Khan said that Hasan was struck on his left index finger early in his innings but continued batting with supportive taping and painkillers. 

"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," Khan said. 

Shakib, nonetheless, led from the front like a skipper and guided his team home with an innings of 82 off 65 balls. He also took a couple of wickets during Sri Lanka innings and was adjudged Player of the Match for his performance.

The game, however, will be remembered for Sri Lanka batter Angelo Mathews' controversial dismissal. Mathews became the first batter in cricket history to be timed out.

Bangladesh's last group game is against Australia in Pune on Saturday.
