Bangladesh vice-captain Najmul Hossain Shanto informed today that captain Shakib Al Hasan will be available for the Tigers' opening World Cup match against Afghanistan on October 7 in Dharamsala.

"Shakib [Al Hasan] is 100% fine and ready for the first match," Shanto said during the toss for their second warm-up match against defending champions England at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati today.

Shanto appeared for the toss as Shakib, who was forced out of the first warm-up match against Sri Lanka due to an ankle sprain in training, also misses the second match.
