“We are confined to a pool of 27 to 30 players in all three formats. We can only select players from this group. If we can’t prepare at least 45 players, we can’t create a sense of competition among the players,” added the former national team selector.
Former national selector Habibul Bashar assumed a new role yesterday as the head of Bangladesh Cricket Board’s (BCB) women’s wing.
For years, there have been murmurs about the selection panel not having complete freedom to choose the players that they want.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) held the ninth board meeting of the incumbent board yesterday where changes made in captaincy and the selection panel were the biggest highlights.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) chief selector Minhajul Abedin Nannu explained Tamim Iqbal’s exclusion from the World Cup squad as a fitness issue involving the southpaw’s injury concerns.
"The Asia Cup squad has a few injury concerns and the team management felt the need for an additional player going into the Super Four," chief selector Minhajul Abedin Nannu said.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) director Khaled Mahmud Sujon said that the selection panel leaving veteran Mahmudullah Riyad out of the Asia Cup squad came strictly out of their planning.
Experienced Mahmudullah Riyad did not make the cut while Tanzid Hossain Tamim got his first national team call-up as the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced a 17-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup later this month.
National cricket team's selectors have finalised a list of 32 cricketers ahead of the fitness camp, which will begin Monday.
