DHAKA, July 23, 2026 (BSS) - Bangladesh pace spearhead Mustafizur Rahman will
miss the entire 2026 season of The Hundred in England after suffering a
hamstring injury.
Mustafizur was signed by Birmingham Phoenix for this year's tournament, which
began on July 21. However, the franchise confirmed in a Facebook post today
that the left-arm pacer has been ruled out for the season because of the
injury.
Popularly known as the "Cutter Master," Mustafizur was picked by Birmingham
Phoenix for his base price of 100,000 pounds at the player auction held in
March.
He sustained the hamstring injury during the first ODI against Zimbabwe
earlier this month after bowling six overs. The injury also forced him to
miss the remaining two matches of the three-match ODI series.
Birmingham Phoenix are yet to announce a replacement for the Bangladesh fast
bowler.
