The Bangladesh government has appointed Tamim Iqbal as the new president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), making him the youngest individual to hold this position at the age of 37. This appointment follows the dissolution of the previous board led by Aminul Islam, which was prompted by an investigation into allegations of malpractice surrounding the BCB elections held in October 2022. The investigation committee, comprising five members, reported its findings during a press briefing at the sports ministry, highlighting concerns about political interference and the validity of the last elections. Tamim will lead an 11-member ad-hoc committee that includes former Bangladesh captain Minhajul Abedin and cricketer-commentator Athar Ali Khan. The BCB has faced increasing pressure from the sports ministry, particularly following Bangladesh's absence from the recent T20 World Cup. The instability within the board is further underscored by the resignation of six directors since January, raising questions about the future of cricket governance in the country.
