A statement by a Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) director, Nazmul Islam, accusing former captain Tamim Iqbal of being an "Indian agent" has triggered widespread condemnation. Islam made the controversial remark on Facebook, alleging Tamim's actions were influenced by India.
This accusation has been met with strong opposition from current and former cricketers, including Taskin Ahmed and Mominul Haque, as well as the Cricketers' Welfare Association of Bangladesh (CWAB). The CWAB expressed shock and outrage, deeming the comment "utterly condemnable" and insulting to all cricketers.
The CWAB has submitted a protest letter to the BCB president, demanding a public apology from Nazmul Islam and requesting accountability for his remarks. They emphasize that such comments undermine the integrity of the sport and question the code of conduct for board officials.
