Bangladesh opener Rony Talukdar's stellar run in the recently concluded Bangladesh Premier League for the Rangpur Riders earned him a comeback to the Tigers T20I squad gearing up to face England in the three-match series next week.

“I thought the position we were in; we should have scored at least 30-35 more. It was a good wicket for spinners. We started well and lost three back-to-back wickets. 250 is gettable on this wicket. We were going like that,” Tamim said

Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha was not interested to talk about the Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal issue. He wanted to look forward to the future leadership of Liton Das and Mehidi Hasan Miraz. The 54-year-old veered away from those issues and in the build-up to the series asserted that Bangladesh would have the upper hand in the contest.

Bangladesh's first-ever ODI captain Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu opined that the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon could have waited till the end of the upcoming England series to give rise to the new talk of the town, relating to the previously assumed strained relationship between two Bangladesh stalwarts -- Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal. 

After having the media analyse and scrutinise the now-confirmed ‘strained relationship’ between Tamim and Shakib that had gone on to ‘stale the dressing room environment’, Hassan performed a stunning U-turn on his words on Monday, just a day after Tamim denied any ‘unhealthy environment for the past 15 years in the dressing room’ in a pre-series presser in Mirpur.

Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha believes the rumoured rift between two senior players won't affect the team's performance on the pitch.

Taijul Islam’s inclusion in the ODI squad for the series against England had raised a few eyebrows as Nasum Ahmed, who has featured regularly in the T20 format, was excluded from the setup. 

Bangladesh ODI captain Tamim Iqbal has claimed that everything is fine within the team as he tried to brush aside president’s claims of a rift between him and Shakib Al Hasan, during a press conference on Sunday.

The bitter relationship between ‘best friends’ Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal has been festering for quite some time now and has remained something of an open secret in the nation’s cricket fraternity, but the topic came squarely to the forefront after Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan Papon admitted that the relationship between the two national stalwarts was strained during an interview with Cricbuzz on Saturday.

Previously, a lot of rumours surrounding the issue circulated, especially from outside the team management

It was a picture of a happy dressing room, Bangladesh players taking pride in their new-found strength from the depths of defeat after all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz’s heroics, with only Mustafizur Rahman for company, helped clinch the first ODI against India in Mirpur. Shakib Al Hasan himself was one of those lending a shoulder on the occasion as Miraz was hoisted in the air.

Khulna Tigers opener Tamim Iqbal is set to miss the remaining part of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) having opted to recover from his previous injuries which according to sources have resurfaced yet again.

Bangladesh ODI captain Liton Das anticipates an even contest as the Tigers take on India in the first of the three-match ODI series at the Sher-e-Bangla National stadium in Mirpur tomorrow.

Bangladesh ODI captain Tamim Iqbal will feature for Khulna Tigers in the upcoming edition of the Bangladesh premier League T20 competition, set to begin in January next year.

After a decent opening stand, Bangladesh lost three quick wickets to see themselves in a precarious situation in the third and final ODI against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club today. 

Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal did not hesitate to admit that Zimbabwe won the three-match ODI with one match in hand on Sunday as the better team.

Sikandar Raza's splendid second consecutive hundred, along with skipper Regis Chakabva's maiden ODI ton, led Zimbabwe to a five-wicket victory against Bangladesh in the second ODI in Harare yesterday, thereby sealing the three-match ODI series with a game in hand. It was the hosts' first ODI series win against Bangladesh after nine years.
