BCB president Nazmul Hassan backed the cricketers and said that the board will stand by the demoralised Tigers during this tough time
With Shakib Al Hasan named as the ODI captain yesterday, there was no obstruction left to announce the Bangladesh squad for the Asia Cup.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon admitted that he is still in the dark regarding where the upcoming Asia Cup will be played.
Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan returned to Dhaka yesterday morning alongside the team following a three-match ODI series in Chattogram and refreshingly he was available to reporters and fielded questions after turning up in the afternoon to fulfil a commercial commitment.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan had announced on September 11 that the board would stage the upcoming edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) on its own from December 6 and name the domestic T20 tournament after Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman to commemorate the occasion of his 100th birth anniversary.
Surgery was required immediately as Shakib was in danger of having his hand completely disabled if the pus had burst. Shakib had said before the Asia Cup that he wanted to undergo the surgery to correct his little finger on the left hand before the Asia Cup but later joined the team at UAE.
Ultimately it was the killing of an Italian national in Dhaka by unknown perpetrators that is believed, within the BCB, to have led to Australia calling off their tour of Bangladesh.
Australia captain Steve Smith switched focus to New Zealand's upcoming tour as he voiced regret that a two-Test series in Bangladesh had to be called off.
BCB president Nazmul Hassan has said the killing of an Italian national in Dhaka on Monday could seal the fate of the Bangladesh-Australia Test series, officially due to begin next week.
