Cricket's journey on a quirky camel
According to Nazmul Abedin Fahim, "In Bangladesh's cricket culture, captains are not born; they are made." The effort to develop a captain for the Tigers has stumbled just eight months in, as reports suggest that Najmul Hossain Shanto will step down from captaincy across all formats after the Chattogram Test. What the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) plans to do in response to this unexpected issue remains to be seen; however, the comments from board director Nazmul Abedin Fahim indicate underlying complexities within the country's cricket.
From setbacks to success: charting a new course for national sports
Syed Aminul Haque Dewan Sajal from Bogura was appointed as General Secretary of the Bangladesh Swimming Federation during the BNP regime, while Mullah Badrul Saif from Gopalganj held a prominent position during the Awami League's rule. This illustrates the impact of political rivalry on the sports sector in the country. However, politics is not the only issue affecting the sports arena; the influence of district and divisional organizing councils, commonly referred to as forums, also plays a significant role. To understand this influence, it's essential to note that there are 55 sports federations and associations affiliated with the National Sports Council.
