The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has ended its contract with physio Dean Conway and has appointed Thihan Chandramohan to fill the vacancy on the ongoing tour of Sri Lanka, a BCB press release informed today.

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman bowled 10 overs yesterday with an intensity of up to 90 per cent and has also begun catching and throwing with his right hand.

Sabbir Rahman's participation in the second Test seems a lot more certain as Bangladesh physio Bayjidul Islam told reporters yesterday that Sabbir's stomach pain was not a serious issue and that he is confident that the batsman will be able to play in the second Test in Dhaka.

Members of the Bangladesh cricket team sweated it out during the practice session at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium at Mirpur ahead of the Zimbabwe series.
