Bangladesh batter Liton Das has been ruled out of the Pakistan Super League due to a finger injury, cutting short his tournament before it even began.
Liton, who was roped in by Karachi Kings, sustained the injury during a practice session, which forced him to withdraw from the squad and return home, as stated by the wicket-keeper batter on Saturday.
Medical staff estimated a recovery period of at least two weeks, leaving no possibility for his participation in the league. 听
鈥業 was truly excited to play in the PSL for Karachi Kings, but the Almighty had other plans. During a practice session, I picked up a finger injury. Scans revealed a hairline fracture, and recovery will take at least 2 weeks,鈥� stated Liton on his Facebook post.
鈥楽o sadly, my PSL mission is over before it even began. I'm flying back to Bangladesh and seeking your prayers & love for a quick recovery.鈥�
Liton, who was set to make his PSL debut after securing a No Objection Certificate from the Bangladesh Cricket Board, had previously played in the Indian Premier League, Lanka Premier League and Caribbean Premier League.
