Come June 26, Bangladesh will be completing its 25 years in Test cricket.
Litton Das had to walk back to the pavilion at the Galle International Stadium on the second day of Bangladesh’s first Test against Sri Lanka yesterday, falling just 10 runs short of what could have been his fifth Test century.
The Bangladesh cricket team has long epitomised an on-again, off-again pattern -- considering their enduring struggle with inconsistency across all formats.
Bangladesh Test skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto is set to lead the side for at least a year and has emphasised the importance of knowing the duration of his tenure in order to prepare with a long-term objective, part of which will be to do better in the upcoming World Test Championship (WTC) cycle.
Evolving and growing through every phase of life is a natural phenomenon. For most, this brings about positive changes. But for the Bangladesh cricket team, the exact opposite is the case, as in every new series and tour, the Tigers unlock new problem areas in their game.
Bangladesh pacer Tanzim Hasan Sakib claimed that every player in the Tigers’ current XI is a "proven player" in both domestic and international cricket. His remarks came after the Tigers’ 57-run loss to Pakistan in the second T20I of the three-match series, which saw Bangladesh concede the series 2-0 with one game left to play.
Former captains Habibul Bashar, Minhajul Abedin Nannu, and Khaled Mashud Pilot didn't mince words: this isn't just a passing stumble. It's a full-blown crisis in Bangladesh cricket.
Bangladesh skipper Liton Das said that the dew factor played the main role in their series loss against the inexperienced UAE after the Tigers lost the third and final game of the three-match series by seven wickets at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium yesterday.
Sunday’s press conference held by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) was the perfect example of a board deflecting the issues instead of acknowledging them.
