No contact with him yet. I don’t know where he is, so I can’t say. If there is communication, then we have to talk’ – said Sujan.

Several activities are stuck due to absence of BCB president. On this topic, Sujan said, ‘Papan brother is no more, although he is still the president, since he has not resigned. Asif Mahmood came as Youth and Sports Adviser. He will decide. Told what to do. As it is no longer in our hands, not in BCB’s hands.’
The most discussed topic in the cricket field is the organization of the Women’s World Cup. which is scheduled to take place in Bangladesh in October. Sujan also spoke about this.
‘Many countries have banned travel, it’s not BCB anymore. We have said logistically, BCB will be able to do the support of the field, the logistics, the rest will go to the government. They will decide it. He also assured, said one thing, the chief advisor is a very sports-loving person. Talk to him and try to solve it quickly.’
‘I want it to be done soon, the World Cup should be in Bangladesh, the image of our country will matter. It will be very significant, if the World Cup can be held. If not, it will be unfortunate’- added Sujan.
