The report was handed over on Saturday by the five-member inquiry committee, led by former Judge A.K.M. Asaduzzaman.
The NSC had formed the committee on March 11 after questions were raised in different quarters over the transparency of the BCB election held last October. The panel was tasked with examining whether the election process had been conducted fairly.
Although the committee had been given 15 working days to complete its work, it managed to prepare and submit the report ahead of schedule.
Concerns over the election had surfaced even before voting began, with allegations of a lack of transparency and government interference dominating discussions.
There was also controversy surrounding the nomination of district and divisional councillors, while accusations of procedural violations were also raised against the current BCB president.
The election also exposed deep divisions within the Bangladesh cricket administration.
One faction chose not to take part in the election, and after the formation of the new government, calls grew louder for an impartial investigation into the process.
The inquiry committee reportedly spoke with several relevant individuals as well as experienced cricket organisers before preparing the report.
As a result, the recommendations made in the report are now expected to play a major role in determining the future of the current BCB board.
Speaking on the matter, committee chief Asaduzzaman said the report was prepared from a neutral standpoint rather than to target any individual.
“We submitted the report after carrying out the investigation from a neutral position, not to accuse anyone,” he said.
He also revealed that former Youth and Sports Adviser Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain had been invited for an interview as part of the inquiry, but did not appear before the committee.
The situation has become even more complicated in recent days, with several board directors stepping down. A total of seven directors have now resigned, a development many are linking to the possible implications of the probe report.
That has added further uncertainty to the future of the current board, with growing discussion over whether the committee can remain in place and whether a major administrative shake-up could now be on the horizon.
