This is not a bash bug, nor is it a bug at all, because sh is not bash. On your system it probably links to a POSIX shell, and POSIX does not require supporting that kind of substitution. Stop calling the script with sh explicitly, and set up the interpreter line and executable bit properly instead if you are going to use non-portable syntax.
