The Indo-Bangla cricket ties have traditionally been cordial, but recent developments have led to a marked deterioration.<\/p>
\"Yes, BCB has sent a letter to Indian cricket board. Not only about Indian men's team's white ball tour of Bangladesh in September, there is a men's 50-over Asia Cup which BCB is set to host next year,\" a BCCI source told PTI on conditions of anonymity.<\/p>
It is understood that BCB is desperate to host India since six white ball matches played by Men In Blue will sort board's finances for the year with revenue generated from the linear and digital broadcast right sales.<\/p>
Tamim in line for BCB presidency? The BCB among many things in the agenda has discussed resignation of four directors during BCB president Aminul Islam Bulbul's reign.<\/p>
There is strong resentment in the Bangladesh cricket corridors about Bulbul's continuation especially after he expressed helplessness to convince the interim-government head Muhammad Yunus to send the team to India.<\/p>"},{"description":"","page-url":"\/story\/8e2d9d7c-3d44-4708-850f-c609b5f8c5db\/element\/6074e812-5b0c-4037-907a-0c7703432a3c","type":"text","family-id":"ecc35af0-626e-4538-94f0-353b4cb0a384","title":"","id":"6074e812-5b0c-4037-907a-0c7703432a3c","metadata":{"linked-story-id":"b24fe4c3-8a1a-4ca6-b25c-315c435fb135","linked-story":{"updated-at":1775310382735,"author-name":"FPJ News Service","headline":"PSPB Cueist Edges Out Pushpender In Men\u2019s Final; Karnataka Ace Downs Neena For Women\u2019s Crown","story-content-id":"b24fe4c3-8a1a-4ca6-b25c-315c435fb135","is-published":true,"slug":"sports\/pspb-cueist-edges-out-pushpender-in-mens-final-karnataka-ace-downs-neena-for-womens-crown","highlighted-external-id":null,"last-published-at":1775310385452,"highlighted-text":null,"alternative":[],"sections":[{"id":9769,"name":"Sports","slug":"sports","data":null},{"id":9754,"name":"Topnews","slug":"topnews","data":null},{"id":71945,"name":"FPJ Shorts","slug":"fpj-shorts","data":null}],"highlighted-slug":null,"public-preview-url":"https:\/\/www.freepressjournal.in\/preview\/story\/ctX-lU388_UusMkste2PfkciQkLy2r9S3SsBb82Mp95dzGnCycTH2nP_7ncTsQX_","published-at":1775310385452,"status":"published","id":"b24fe4c3-8a1a-4ca6-b25c-315c435fb135","content-type":"story","frontend-url":"https:\/\/www.freepressjournal.in\/sports\/pspb-cueist-edges-out-pushpender-in-mens-final-karnataka-ace-downs-neena-for-womens-crown","author-id":623884,"highlighted-headline":null,"story-template":"text","authors":[{"id":623884,"name":"FPJ News Service","email":"fpj1@fpj1.com"}],"metadata":[],"highlighted-public-identifier":null,"public-preview-key":"ctX-lU388_UusMkste2PfkciQkLy2r9S3SsBb82Mp95dzGnCycTH2nP_7ncTsQX_","publish-at":null}},"subtype":"also-read","text":"PSPB Cueist Edges Out Pushpender In Men\u2019s Final; Karnataka Ace Downs Neena For Women\u2019s Crown"},{"description":"","page-url":"\/story\/8e2d9d7c-3d44-4708-850f-c609b5f8c5db\/element\/daf3a096-cc4a-428b-9710-cb9a6ac6bc61","type":"text","family-id":"44fa18b0-ca0a-472d-a7a0-f529c88c8571","title":"","id":"daf3a096-cc4a-428b-9710-cb9a6ac6bc61","metadata":[],"subtype":null,"text":"
\"The investigation committee that is looking into the T20 World Cup non-participation fiasco will present its report to the government on April 9.<\/p>
\"It would be interesting to find out how Bulbul would be placed once that report is tabled. In that case, an interim board will take over and the re-elections will be held in 90 days. All eyes will also be on Bangladesh's foreign minister's visit to Delhi,\" said a source tracking developments.<\/p>
It is understood that former Bangladesh skipper and country's greatest opener Tamim Iqbal could be a strong candidate for BCB presidency.<\/p>
Iqbal, who urged the government and BCB to take a prudent and practical stand from their hostile retaliation, is a choice which the Indian cricket board would also not mind.<\/p>
