The Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur transformed into a festive hub on Thursday afternoon as past and present cricketers reunited for the much-anticipated Cricketers’ Welfare Association of Bangladesh (CWAB) election.

The atmosphere was less about rivalry and more about friendship, with laughter, conversations, and familiar faces filling the ground. Among the attendees was former national captain Tamim Iqbal, whose presence drew heightened attention amid speculation over his future role in the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).

Former national team captain Tamim Iqbal also arrived, dressed in a white panjabi, to cast his vote. Given his star status, Tamim always draws extra attention. Still, the spotlight was even brighter this time following his recent announcement that he would contest in the upcoming Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) elections. Earlier, there had even been speculation about him running for CWAB’s presidency.


In the end, Tamim chose not to contest in the CWAB polls.


When asked about the reason, he avoided a direct answer, saying: “You all know why I didn’t stand for the CWAB election. I hope you can understand.”


His remarks hinted at the upcoming BCB elections. If elected as a BCB director or president, holding a CWAB committee post would create a conflict of interest.

In the CWAB elections, the contest is limited to the presidency. The two candidates vying for the post are former cricketer and match referee Selim Shahed, and current cricketer Mohammad Mithun.


The other 10 committee positions were filled uncontested. Last year, following political changes, then-President Naimur Rahman and General Secretary Debabrata Pal resigned. An ad-hoc committee, led by Selim Shahed, has since overseen CWAB affairs and is conducting this election.


Reflecting on CWAB’s journey, Tamim said he believed there were still some shortcomings but expected improvements in the future.


“Of course, there are areas that could be questioned, things that could have been better. Our main objective was to ensure the election took place and a committee was formed. Now they’ll have two years to organize everything systematically. So far, it’s been very positive.”
