Fit Mosaddek eager for comeback

Mosaddek Hossain has fully recovered from his eye infections and is now gearing up for his comeback with defending champions Dhaka Dynamites in the upcoming fifth edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).

Earlier this year, the youngster made a brilliant Test debut for the national team against Sri Lanka and was instrumental during the Tigers memorable win over New Zealand in the ICC Champions Trophy as he bagged three quick wickets to get the side back into the game.

The 21-year-old then contracted an eye infection ahead of the home series against Australia and subsequently missed the South Africa series as well since he had not recovered in time.

However, the cricketer from Mymensingh is now fully fit and informed that his main challenge will be to recapture his previous form that helped the Dynamites conquer the BPL last season.

"I was out from the national team since the Champions Trophy and my main challenge will be to find the rhythm and return to the flow where I finished in the BPL last season for Dhaka," Mosaddek told reporters after his team's first training session at the Academy ground in Mirpur yesterday.

Mosaddek, who scored a total of 288 runs and bagged ten wickets across 18 ODI's, also revealed that having to sit on the outside and and watch his fellow teammates play on television was a tough period in his career.

"I did not want to return without clearance from the doctor so when I received the green signal I returned to the field immediately. Every player goes through such tough periods and it was also difficult for me to watch Bangladesh play on TV. I was eagerly waiting to return to the field as early as I could through a tournament and it's a great opportunity for me to make a comeback so early. We have a home series later with the national team and if I am able to perform well in the BPL I hope to make a comeback to the national team again," he concluded.
