As per Bangladesh's Asia Cup schedule, the Tigers will face Sri Lanka in their opening group match in Kandy, Sri Lanka, on August 31 and then will have to be in Pakistan's Lahore in two days to play Afghanistan.

Bangladesh Cricket Board's (BCB) cricket operations chairman, Jalal Yunus said that the hybrid model of the upcoming Asia Cup will take a toll on players in terms of fatigue.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) is not entirely certain whether Tamim Iqbal will return to the team as the captain of the ODI side, the board’s chairman of the cricket operations committee Jalal Yunus hinted today.  

There is not a whole lot of information related to the ODI World Cup’s scheduling, slated to be played this year in India, which may be a mere annoying for fans looking to catch up on the action. But it has become an issue for the teams given the impact it has on their preparations and plans for the tournament.

Fast bowler Shahadat Hossain, who is wanted for allegedly assaulting housemaid, has been temporarily suspended, Jalal Yunus, chairman of BCB media wing said today.

BCB will issue show-cause notices to Elias Sunny and Nadif Chowdhury after they participated in a private Twenty20 tournament last month in the USA.
