Today Bangladesh Cricket Board is trying to wink at BCCI, but it has forgotten that it was the Indian Cricket Board that gave them Test status. Otherwise no one even wanted to play cricket with them, then India helped them by playing the first test with the neighboring country. Under the captaincy of Sourav Ganguly, Team India won this test by 9 wickets. There were also star players like Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Ajit Agarkar, Zaheer Khan etc.

India helped Bangladesh in getting test status

Jagmohan Dalmiya, who was the chief of BCCI, was the chief of ICC in 2000. He got Test status for Bangladesh by getting unanimous voting. No one was playing Test matches with him, when the Indian cricket team played the first Test with him.

BCCI also helped him in this. It started with the 1999 ODI World Cup. Here Bangladesh was playing in this big tournament for the first time. They registered their first win by defeating Scotland. After this, they also created a big upset by defeating Pakistan, one of the favorite teams of that edition. This was one reason, but full emphasis was given by former BCCI President and then ICC Chief Jagmohan Dalmiya. In 2000, he helped Bangladesh become the 10th nation to achieve Test playing status by unanimous vote.

England was to have a test with Bangladesh, but they refused to play it citing reasons. Then India played Test with Bangladesh and got them Test status. This test was played in Dhaka on 10-13 November, in which India won by 9 wickets.

Why is the controversy happening now?

When there was rapid protest in India against the atrocities being committed on Hindus in Bangladesh, it also affected IPL. Bangladeshi player Mustafizur Rahman was bought by KKR for Rs 9.20 crore, due to which there was opposition from KKR and team owner Shahrukh Khan, then BCCI directed to release Mustafizur.

BCB called an emergency meeting and decided that it would request to shift its T20 World Cup matches from India to Sri Lanka. Bangladesh also banned live telecast of IPL matches.

Bangladesh Cricket Board has announced the schedule of Indian cricket team’s tour of Bangladesh. Team India has to play 3-match ODI series and 3-match T20 series in Bangladesh. bcb According to, the Indian team will reach Bangladesh on 28th August. The Indian team will play a three-match ODI series and the same number of T20 series in Bangladesh. However, India’s tour of Bangladesh may be canceled due to deteriorating diplomatic relations between India and Bangladesh. Despite the announcement of the schedule by BCB, it is difficult for the Indian team to tour Bangladesh.

BCB had announced India’s tour of Bangladesh on Friday. Bangladesh Board had claimed that they have talked to BCCI. BCB also announced the dates of the ODI and T20 series matches. According to the schedule, the Indian team will play three ODI matches in Bangladesh on 1, 3 and 6 September. Then three T20 matches will be played on 9, 12 and 13 September.

The series was originally scheduled to be held last year, but was canceled indefinitely due to security concerns of the Indian board. Reliable sources have revealed that BCCI is not ready to cooperate this time too, a big indication of which is to direct IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders to release fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman from the team.

Bangladesh has been in the grip of political violence for the last six months and BCCI does not want to take the risk of touring this country in this situation of instability. Bangladesh has to come to India for T20 World Cup matches from next month itself. After Rahman was released from IPL on the instructions of BCCI, BCB’s stand on this matter will be in everyone’s eyes.

India and Pakistan play all their ICC matches at neutral venues as their relations have worsened following the Pahalgam terror attack last year. The much-awaited India-Pakistan match of the T20 World Cup will be played in Sri Lanka next month.

The Indian team was to tour Bangladesh last year, which was postponed. Bangladesh Cricket Board made a big announcement on Friday saying that India will tour Bangladesh in August-September 2026, in which a series of 3 ODIs and as many T20 matches will be played.

Violence against Hindus in Bangladesh is being protested in India, due to which the presence of Bangladeshi players in IPL is also being criticized. Amidst this uproar, Bangladesh Cricket Board’s cricket operations in-charge Shahriyar Nafees told Cricbuzz, “The series between Bangladesh and India which was postponed earlier has been rescheduled.”

In the Super Over, the Indian team lost both its wickets without scoring any runs, after which Bangladesh won due to a wide ball bowled by Suyyash Sharma. The decision of the Indian team is being heavily criticized that in-form batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi was not sent in the Super Over. Captain Jitesh Sharma himself has given a big statement on this.

Why didn’t Vaibhav send Suryavanshi?

Captain Jitesh Sharma said in the post match presentation ceremony, “In our team, Vaibhav and Priyansh are masters of powerplay, but Ashutosh Sharma and Ramandeep Singh have the experience of hitting big hits in the death overs. The line-up of the super over was the team’s decision, on which the final decision was taken by me.”

The captain took responsibility for the defeat

Taking responsibility for the defeat of the Indian team, Jitesh Sharma said, “It was a good match, we learned a lot. Being a senior player of the team, I take responsibility for the defeat. I should have won the match. This is not a matter of victory or defeat, it is a matter of learning. No one knows, who knows, these young players may win the World Cup trophy for India someday. The level of their talent is touching the sky. We have to learn from the mistakes and move forward.”

The Indian team had scored 3 runs on the last ball and brought the match to super over. The score of both the teams was 194 runs. When it came to Super Over, the Indian team lost both the wickets without scoring any runs. In reply, Suyyash Sharma took the wicket of Bangladesh on the first ball, but he bowled the next ball wide.

In the first match of Super-4, Surya was dismissed by scoring just 5 runs in the match against Bangladesh for zero against Pakistan.

Suryakumar Yadav was caught out behind the wicket on the last ball of the 12th over. Although the umpire did not give him out when the appeal was made, Surya also stood there but Bangladesh took the review. On the screen, it was shown that the big edge of the bat went to the wicket keeper. Abhishek Sharma was also run out on the first ball in this over.

Fielder Rishad Hosain stopped the ball by putting a brilliant dive, Abhishek ran to run the run but Surya asked him to go back. Abhishek was run out, he played a brilliant innings of 75 runs in 37 balls.

Fans criticized Suryakumar Yadav!

In 2 important matches of Super-4, Suryakumar Yadav did not bat, he could not even open an account against Pakistan. After flopping after Bangladesh, fans are criticizing him on social media. One user wrote, “The age was so big and every audience and fielder on the field clearly saw that any civilized cricketer would leave, but Suryakumar did not move. But nowadays, there is no gentle in this Gentleman game.”

The edge was so massive & visible to every spectator & fielders on the ground that any Decent Cricketer would have walked but @suryya_14kumar Didn’t Move. But these days, there is noting gentle about this ‘gentleman’s’ game. Political posturing. Arrogance. Unsportsmanlike Conduct

Another user wrote, “I request the BCCI to include Shreyas Iyer in the T20 format. Suryakumar Yadav should be rested because we are not batting well. We all saw this in the last two matches. Please BCCI and Gautam Gambhir, Shreyas Iyer is a very good player.

Another user questioned Suryakumar Yadav’s average and wrote, “Its average is less than 17 in the last 10 T20 matches. When your seat is booked, you do not need to perform.”

Sanju Samson was not sent to bat in the Super-4 match of Asia Cup 2025 against Bangladesh, while Team India was received by Team India as Hardik Pandya on the last ball. Samson was placed at number 8, Shivam Dubey was sent to number three but he was able to score only 2 runs. Tilak Verma came at number five, he was also a flop (5 runs). Whereas in the press conference before the match, assistant coach Ryan Ten Doshet had assured that Samson is being seen at number five.

For the last one year, Sanju Samson was starting the innings at T20 International, as an opener, he also scored 3 centuries in 12 innings. However, after the return of Shubman Gill, Samson was not selected as an opener in the Asia Cup 2025. Batting at number three against Oman, he scored a half -century, after which he was sent to number five against Pakistan.

What did the assistant coach say about Sanju Samson’s batting position?

Assistant coach Ryan Ten Doshet had said before the match against Bangladesh, “There are 2 matches left, two good opportunities and he is still trying to understand how to play this role (batting at number 5). Captains are batting at number three, we are looking for the fifth number batsman and we believe that Sanju is suitable for this.

Former cricketer targeted

Former Indian cricketer Doda Ganesh did not like to keep Sanju at number 8. He tweeted a target at this. He wrote, “No cricket can be logic to place Sanju Samson at number eight. It is absolutely unacceptable.”

Sanju samson at no 8 defies any cricketing logic. It’s simply unacceptable #ASIACUP
