Bangladesh ODI captain Tamim Iqbal might undergo an operation for a back injury, confirmed by a source from Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) to a national daily 'The Daily Sun'.
Tamim, who is in the United Kingdom for treatment is set to see the physician this week.
“Operation is one option in such cases (for Tamim) but that is possibly the last one because if he eventually ends up for surgery, in that case, he will be out for at least four months,” a BCB official told The Daily Sun.

Tamim has been suffering from a back injury for a long time which forced him out of the lone Test against Afghanistan.
However, he returned to play the ODI opener of the three-match ODI series against Afghanistan despite not being 100% fit. In return, BCB President Nazmul Hassan Papon showed dissent to his decision and criticized him.
Following that Tamim made a shocking retirement announcement in the press conference but he reversed his retirement plan after the intervention made by Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina within 29 hours and was given mental break for 1.5 months.
Tamim's return to international cricket remained doubtful for prolonged injury and he is expected to sit with the board officials after returning from the UK and will decide about his plans after the meeting.
