However, the Tigers' management ruled out anything serious. Manager MA Latif said Mashrafee, who received a knock on his right-knee while fielding and Nazmul, who could not finish his 17th over because of cramps, were okay.

"Both are very well now. They had a little bit of problem but nothing to be concerned about," Latif told the Daily Star Sport.

Mashrafee, easily the best Bangladesh bowler in the two Tests, has had a history of knee injuries and only returned to playing last month after a year out of cricket.

After getting hit by the ball, he was seen limping for a while which brought back dark memories of November 2003 when he broke down in the middle of the second Test against England at this very venue.
