Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Aminul Islam Bulbul returned to Dhaka after a joint meeting with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the International Cricket Council (ICC) in Lahore. Following the talks, BCB confirmed that Bangladesh would not face any sanctions for missing the recent World Cup. Bulbul stated that the ICC, unable to provide direct financial compensation, offered Bangladesh opportunities to host upcoming tournaments, including the Women’s Under-19 World Cup next year and the 50-over World Cup jointly with India in 2031.
Bulbul described the meeting as a success that strengthened Bangladesh’s position within the ICC, asserting that the country had proven itself a “cricket power house.” He thanked the PCB for its support, noting that Pakistan had advocated for Bangladesh’s participation and even considered boycotting a match against India in solidarity. Bulbul emphasized that this outcome was not a “win” but recognition of Bangladesh’s importance as an ICC member.
He added that cricket’s popularity in Bangladesh and the region’s high player and viewership numbers made the country indispensable to the global cricket structure.
