Mr. Hossain, who took charge of his 14-man team for the Kuala Lumpur Games, is yet to get his entire selection together since he started the training camp at the BKSP from August 17. Captain Akram Khan missed most of the training session due to a niggling pain on his throat. Akram's deputy Aminul Islam, who tied the knot recently, was yet to join the training session. To add to the new coach's misery, all-rounder Khaled Mahmud Sujon stayed on the bench with a twisted ankle. Left-arm spinner Mohammed Rafique is reported to be struggling to find a safe abode after his house across the Buriganga river went under flood water.

Of the lot, the condition of Khaled Mahmud is very critical. It was learnt that Mahmud might ultimately have to miss the Commonwealth bus due to his injury.

Besides, leg spinner Tanvir did not turn up for a single day because of his examinations and veteran left-arm spinner Enamul Haq surprisingly did not even report to the BCB.

The Hossain camp will resume from tomorrow.
