Bangladesh opener Tanzid Hasan survived a nasty injury during an ICC T20 World Cup match against the Netherlands.

Vivian Kingma bowled a bouncer, but the batter failed to connect it, with the delivery getting stuck in his helmet grill. It was the third over of the Bangladesh’s innings.

He was checked by the medical team of the team, and a concussion test was conducted.

There were concerns about Tanzid’s safety, considering the pace of the short ball. The medical team declared him fit enough to continue as he survived any injury.

The Netherlands chose to bowl first against Bangladesh in a crucial Twenty20 World Cup match delayed by a wet outfield on Thursday.

Rain briefly delayed the morning toss, and then both teams had to wait for Arnos Vale to dry out.

Bangladesh was unchanged after losing to South Africa on Monday, while the Dutch made one change, bringing in off-spinner Aryan Dutt for Teja Nidamanuru.

The winner will be on the brink of joining Group D leader South Africa in the Super 8.


Lineups:

Bangladesh: Tanzid Hasan, Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto (captain), Towhid Hridoy, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan, Taskin Ahmed Mustafizur Rahman.

Netherlands: Michael Levitt, Max O'Dowd, Vikramjit Singh, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Scott Edwards (captain), Bas de Leede, Logan van Beek, Tim Pringle, Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeren, Vivian Kingma.
