Also last night, BCB president Nazmul Hassan Papon called for a late-night meeting with captain Shakib and coach Chandika Hathurusingha, who had returned from Australia a few hours ago.
Earlier today [Tuesday], another news speculated that Shakib does not want to captain the country in the World Cup starting in India on October 5.
Despite the fact that other teams declared their 15-man squads well before the final cut-off date (September 27), Bangladesh is still making last-minute plans for the month-and-a-half-long event.
