Yep. Although Tamim in all likelihood is no longer available, the organizers are still including his name in their promotions of this event. There was a rumour making the rounds on Facebook pages that Mash and Nasir will be coming to Toronto instead, which does good for the organizers to look to plan B and more representation from Bangladesh in the Asia XI as the subcontinent's hottest team right now. The names of Mushy and Riyad are also in the mix according to the organizers themselves (via Twitter).
But again, the way these exhibition matches are organized in most cases, I really can't put a stamp on the inclusion of ANY player until they actually arrive here in Toronto.
But I did my tickets well in advance and won't be missing out on the match at any cost.
