Bangladesh captain Litton Das suffers back strain before Asia

Bangladesh T20I captain Litton Das was reportedly forced to cut short his batting session during practice at the ICC Academy in Dubai on Monday after suffering a back strain. The injury comes just days before Bangladesh’s Super Four clash against India in the Asia Cup 2025.

According to The Daily Star, the 30-year-old experienced discomfort on his left side while attempting a cut shot after completing an extended fielding session.

Litton immediately stopped batting, sat down, and later lay on the ground next to the nets. Team physio Bayezidul Islam and the Bangladesh Cricket Board’s chief physician, Dr Debashish Chowdhury, rushed to attend to him on the spot.
