Suspended cricketer Mohammad Ashraful is likely to be barred from the game for good once the final investigation report is released as there is hardly anybody in the cricketing fraternity who thinks that Test cricket’s youngest ever centurion can expect a lighter sentence in light of his confession to being involved in fixing in both international and domestic games. Bangladesh’s head-coach, Shane Jurgesen, who returned to Dhaka on Monday, said losing Ashraful will be a great blow to the national team’s batting line-up. “We still have to go through with the process of what’s going to be done. If he is banned, it is a huge loss in the batting order for us. But that’s all I am really going to say,” said Jurgensen to the media yesterday at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. The Australian coach added that there had been “disbelief” when the news of Ashraful’s confession came out. “In regards to that situation, I don’t really know that many details so I don’t want to comment on it. It is a very difficult situation for everyone, so I will let people do the investigation,” he said. Meanwhile, the Bangladesh Cricket Board is looking to shift its focus from the fixing scandal back to on-field cricket with the national fitness camp starting tomorrow. Ashraful who is under suspension from all kind of cricketing activities until the ICC Anti-Corruption and Security Unit submits the report will not be a part of the camp. Jurgesen said, “The focus of the camp that starts on June 13 is something we wanted to do for quite a while. The focus will be purely on fitness. We haven’t had a dedicated time for fitness in quite a while, since before the 2011 World Cup. “The guys will be assessed thoroughly, in light of the injuries that we have had over the last few months. We will see how strong they are, and then from there we will devising programs for guys, specific to their skill-set.” Bangladesh will face New Zealand at home in October and November and there are chances that the Tigers will travel to Ireland for a few limited overs games. “We have some really important cricket coming up. We have all had a really nice break after a long international and domestic cricket season. Now we have to focus strongly on what’s coming up. “What will be important is to see when these matches will actually happen. I am aware of there potentially being a tour, but we have to make sure it is our best preparation leading into the series against New Zealand,” the coach said.
