Dhaka - Pakistan's leg-spinner Yasir Shah was on Thursday ruled out of the upcoming one-day series against Bangladesh, a third injury setback for the tourists in the past two weeks.
Shah, 28, needed three stitches on his left thumb after being hit during a practice match on Wednesday ahead of the first of three one-day internationals in Dhaka on Friday.
Team manager Naved Cheema said that a replacement for Shah will be named shortly, but it was unclear if the leg-spinner will be available for the subsequent Test series.
