BCB, BCCI looking for new window to host India series: Tamim Iqbal
Bangladesh Cricket Board president Tamim Iqbal is actively seeking a new window to host India for a bilateral series despite current scheduling conflicts and political tensions. Both boards remain committed to finding a viable date for the matches.
Why it matters
The potential series holds significant diplomatic and economic weight for both nations, serving as a barometer for bilateral relations and sports cooperation.
Bangladesh Cricket Board president Tamim Iqbal said on Sunday that they are looking for a new window to host India, who are scheduled to play three ODIs and as many T20Is in August-September. While there is no possibility of holding the series as per the schedule discussed by both boards earlier, and many feel the series will be scrapped for good, taking into account the current political situation prevailing between the two neighbouring countries, Tamim begs to differ. “That it (India series) won't happen hasn't been decided yet,” Tamim was quoted as saying by popular sports platform <i>Not Out Noman</i> on Sunday. “Still, let me give a quick piece of information. Both boards are very sincere that this thing happens. Both BCCI and BCB and we are looking at windows as well, which time what can be done.
