Jaker suffered a concussion during training at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Sunday. "Jaker Ali suffered a concussion while batting in practice yesterday [Sunday]," Bangladesh's physio Bayjedul Islam Khan said. "He has a history of concussions and is still showing symptoms.
Given his previous concussion record, recovery may take some time. Based on the clinical findings, he has been ruled out of the second Test." Jaker, a wicketkeeper-batter, made a fifty on Test debut in Bangladesh's second innings in the first match against South Africa.
