In Mirpur, a clash occurred between supporters and opponents of Sakib Al Hasan over his farewell Test match. A group of Sakib supporters, under the banner of ‘Sakibians,’ protested, demanding that Sakib be given the opportunity to play his farewell Test match against South Africa in Mirpur. They also called for the resignation of BCB President Faruque Ahmed if Sakib is not allowed to play in the Mirpur Test. Around 3 PM, tensions escalated when a group of anti-Sakib protesters confronted the ‘Sakibians,’ leading to a scuffle. Both groups engaged in heated exchanges, and some members from each group were injured during the confrontation. At that time, law enforcement officers detained a Sakib supporter on charges of chanting anti-state slogans. However, the supporter told journalists that he had not chanted any anti-state slogans, only ones in support of Sakib.
