Assam's fast bowler Mukhtar Hussain has been selected by the MRF Pace Foundation to undergo a two-week training programme in Australia.

MRF head coach M. Senthilnathan, who will accompany them down under, told that "the boys will practice in the National Cricket Academy in Brisbane."

The two-week training camp is scheduled to be held from May 11 to May 25.

Senthilnathan added, "They will be guided by acclaimed coach Troy Cooley and will also have bio-mechanics done. It will be hugely beneficial to them."

Hussain had been able to take 40 wickets in 9 matches in the Ranji Trophy 2018-19.
