"The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) is in constant communication with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regarding the A team’s tour," said the BCB in their statement.

The team for the Pakistan series is yet to be announced but a probable contingent of players were set to begin skill training under head coach Chandika Hathurusingha and other coaching staff on Sunday. But practice had to be cancelled due to the ongoing unrest.

Bangladesh A will fly to Pakistan on August 6.

Bangladesh Cricket Board announced separate squads for its forthcoming Pakistan tour.

“I agree that his [Hathurusingha] man management style and communication is totally different. His biggest problem is his difficulty in adjusting to our country’s culture,” the BCB president said on Hathurusingha, whose contract will run till the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.

The kind of spin Rishad produces can be an asset for the Bangladesh Test team, who have often found wanting in away series due to a lack of variety.

“We are confined to a pool of 27 to 30 players in all three formats. We can only select players from this group. If we can’t prepare at least 45 players, we can’t create a sense of competition among the players,” added the former national team selector.

The batting coach of the Tigers sheds light on team’s preparation and chances for the upcoming away Test series in Pakistan.

Bangladesh seamer Mohammad Saifuddin does not always make things easy for himself whenever he speaks to the media.

The national team stars, who are not playing franchise cricket outside the country, will join Bangladesh Tigers or partake in individual sessions following their break as per team management’s plans as the focus shifts back to red-ball cricket with the two-Test tour to Pakistan in August coming up. 

BCB's chief physician, Debashish Chowdhury, confirmed the development to The Daily Star.

What happens inside the team environment usually stays out of public knowledge, but this time the news about Taskin was leaked quite some time after the World Cup game in question.

The leggie grabbed 14 wickets in seven matches in competition, finishing as Bangladesh’s most successful bowler in the competition, and joint third overall in the tournament.

As another discussion follows on performances, will BCB this time be relieved with having made the second stage, or will they form another probe committee?

The truth is, the Tigers have exceeded pre-tournament expectations. Yet, at the same time, they have left fans bitterly disappointed.

The Tigers remain the only team to have participated in all nine editions of the T20 World Cup without reaching the semi-finals.

The manner of their exit from the global event has left fans disconsolate and experts baffled.

Following the red-ball format, Bangladesh A will play a fifty-over tri-series with Pakistan Shaheens and Northern Territory of Australia.

In a game where the batting order had to be shuffled to make the chase in 12.1 overs, Bangladesh resorted to normalcy.

As it stands, Afghanistan have the best chance to move into the last-four stage, whereas the odds are stacked the heaviest for Bangladesh.
