Bangladesh star players Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Bin Mortaza have expressed their anger recently against several officials of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB). However, BCB director Khaled Mahmud Sujon has suggested not giving much importance to the comments of Shakib and Mashrafe.
Shakib sharply criticized Cricket Operations Committee Chairman Akram Khan and High Performance (HP) Unit Chairman Naimur Rahman Durjoy on March 20 during a live session with Cricfrenzy. Where he expressed the most dissatisfaction with HP's activities.
Speaking to several media outlets, former captain Mashrafe made several serious allegations against the selectors. However, Sujon was highly praised by two-star cricketers of Bangladesh cricket. Besides, they have said that Sujon is the most trusted place for cricketers. Although Sujon did not want to comment on these, he thought that they may have said these things due to some grief.

“I don’t really want to comment on that. I mean, it's a little embarrassing. Both are cricket icons in our country. Mashrafe is an icon, one of the most successful captains, I would say a legend. The captain who brought Bangladesh cricket out of the abyss. Shakib is the best in the world, when it comes to him. The best performer in Bangladesh. What they said is why they said it because everyone has love, there is anger, there is sorrow,” said Sujon to media on Saturday.
“I don’t know if the words are coming from woe. The directors of the cricket board are all honorable, who try to work. They try their best. They have given their personal opinion. I don't think we should give as much importance as we are giving to it” he added.
Under such circumstances, the relationship between cricketers and board officials has deteriorated considerably. However, Sujon thinks that BCB president Nazmul Hasan Papon will solve the problems. The BCB director claims that these issues will be resolved very soon.
