Shoriful missed the entire T20 World Cup due to a finger injury, the bowler expressed his disappointment for not getting a chance to play a single match in the whole tournament. 


"Unfortunately, I couldn't play. I was hoping to play at least one match. It's a bit disappointing. I was ready for all the matches. However, because of the team combination, even though everyone was playing very well. So it did not happen," he said.
