Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan and experienced batter Mushfiqur Rahim returned to Dhaka on Sunday after getting a three-day leave from the team management.
Mushfiqur returned to Dhaka to be with his wife as they are expecting their second baby.
According to BCB's cricket operations department, Shakib took the leave on personal grounds.
The whole Bangladesh team in fact was given three-day break and the cricketers used this leave to return to the country for a short trip.
Both the cricketers are expected to join the side ahead of the final Super Four match against India on September 15.
Bangladesh's chance to make it to the final looked very slim following their two consecutive defeats at the Super Four. In the first match, they conceded a seven-wicket defeat to Pakistan before tasting a 21-run defeat to Sri Lanka yesterday.
Their hopes of making it to the final of the tournament now lie entirely on other results going their way coupled with favorable net run-rates.
