Overview
- The National Sports Council decision, announced Tuesday, removed Aminul Islam’s board and installed an 11-member ad-hoc committee led by former captain Tamim Iqbal with a mandate to hold elections within 90 days.
- NSC officials said the investigation flagged serious flaws in the October 2025 vote, including improper formation of the board, and they have formally notified the International Cricket Council of the change.
- Tamim vowed to repair Bangladesh cricket’s image after the T20 World Cup no-show in India and said his priorities are a clean election and restoring trust at home and abroad.
- Ousted president Aminul Islam has rejected the action as a constitutional coup and filed an appeal to the ICC, according to AFP and NDTV reporting.
- The interim leadership has opened talks with India’s cricket board to restart bilateral fixtures, a move that could bring tours back on the calendar and cool tensions after disputes tied to Mustafizur Rahman’s IPL status and security claims.
