Will Tamim Iqbal be seen playing in the red-green jersey? This question is being raised more and more after becoming the man of the tournament in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). However, Tamim’s decision not to return depends on the meeting with the board.
This meeting has not been held yet as he went out of the country after the BPL. Meanwhile, the media has reported that Tamim will not play under Chandika Hathurusingha. But after the tenth board meeting of Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), president Nazmul Hasan Papon said about Tamim’s return, Tamim will play if he wants to play, what is there to ask the coach.
If Tamim wants to play, he will play. What to ask the coach again in this regard? Let me say a few things. It is their responsibility to finalize the party selection, which the board has a committee. They will decide who will be in the team. Again they do not decide who will be in the XI. It is mainly the captain, along with the coach who has a big opinion.
In other words, the BCB president does not see any role of the head coach of the Bangladesh team with the return of Tamim. Everything depends on the Tamim-BCB meeting.
The BCB president said, ‘It is very important to sit with Tamim. That’s why I asked to hear Tamim’s plan first. If we know his plan, we can move forward. If you talk about the head coach, I don’t see anything to separate with him.
‘Who will be the coach, who will be the selector, who will be the captain, it is entirely the board’s decision. What someone else has said here might help me make up my mind, but there’s no way I have to do that. Board’s decision’ added the BCB president.
Last June, Tamim announced his retirement in the middle of the ODI series against Afghanistan. Tamim was not in the World Cup team despite returning to the hands of the Prime Minister. That complication has not yet been resolved. Let’s see what happens in the end.
