National left-arm spinner Enamul Haque Jr joined Wolverhampton Cricket Club in the Birmingham Premier League as part of his preparation for the forthcoming series against New Zealand amid uncertainty over the future of the Dhaka Premier League.
Enamul, who was included in the Test squad for the tour of Zimbabwe after a gap of four years, did not wish to waste any time as he felt unless he prepared himself adequately, it would be difficult for him to retain his place in the national team.
‘I decided to play here as part of my preparation for the next series against New Zealand,’ Enamul told New Age via facebook from England on Friday.
‘The (Dhaka Premier) league is uncertain so there is no guarantee of getting the opportunity to play matches in Bangladesh,’ said Enamul.
‘If the date of the premier league is fixed, I will return or else I will stay back till September,’ he added.
Enamul picked up three wickets in his comeback Test match against Zimbabwe before being dropped
from the starting line-up in the second Test.
The Kiwis will arrive in Bangladesh on October 2 for a two-Test series, three one-day internationals and a lone Twenty20 International.
