The pace bowler, who earned a place in the first eleven replacing Khaled Mahmud, suffered dehydration and picked up a hamstring injury after 29 overs of the Sri Lankan innings in the second ODI at Premadasa Stadium on Friday.

He was carried off the ground by teammates but returned to bowl. However, when he started his second spell in the 48th over Nazmul had a cramp in the calf muscle and so had to retire after just one over.

Meanwhile, team management is still waiting for the MRI report on pace spearhead Mashrafee bin Mortuza. An X-ray, however, confirmed that the Narail quick, who missed both matches due to a pain in the lower back pain, has suffered no major fracture.

Batsman Rajin Saleh, who only played in the lone warm-up match where he scored a half-century, also had a scan to check a nigging back pain that he has been carrying for nearly six months.

Both the reports are expected to be available on Saturday.
