Bangladesh Cricket Board takes surprising decision after exit from T20 World Cup 2026

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has reinstated M Nazmul Islam as the chairman of its finance committee. The Daily Star has reported that the decision follows the International Cricket Council’s move to replace Bangladesh.

BCB disciplinary committee head Faiazur Rahman mentioned that the matter has been reviewed internally before the final decision was taken by the Bangladesh Cricket Board. According to the report, the disciplinary committee had described Nazmul’s response as satisfactory.

“We have accepted the decision of the ICC board. Since the ICC has said that we cannot go and play or they cannot shift our games to Sri Lanka, in this case we cannot go and play in India. Our position remains the same. We are not going to any separate arbitration or anything here,” Amzad said, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.

“After the ICC board meeting, there was a cabinet meeting of the Bangladesh government and a decision was made there. The decision clearly stated that our team will not be able to go to India. This decision has been communicated by the government. After that, the ICC asked us to reply within 24 hours. We told them politely that it is not possible for us to go and play according to this fixture,” he added.
