Dhaka: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) today named the chairmen of all standing committees sans two. Names of the chairmen were announced after a meeting of the BCB office at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, Faruque Ahmed, who was elected BCB president after the fall of the Awami League regime, faced challenges in managing the daily operations of the board. With only ten directors, including Faruque, actively participating at the moment, most directors have been assigned multiple committees to ensure the BCB operates efficiently.
Iftekhar Ahmed Mithu has been appointed as the chairman of the Media and Communications Committee. Najmul Abedin Fahim will lead the Cricket Operations and Women’s Wing, while President Faruque Ahmed retains control over the Marketing Committee. Mithu stated that the chairmen have been tasked with naming the full committee of their respective departments as soon as possible.
Chairmen for 21 standing committees were announced, while the Working and Security Committee chairmen are yet to be named. The other standing committee chairmen include Fahim Sinha for Finance, Game Development, Logistic and Protocol; Mahbub Anam for Grounds, High Performance Unit, Tender and Purchase; Akram Khan for Tournament, Facilities Management and Physically Challenged Persons; Saiful Alam Chowdhury Sopon for Age Group, Disciplinary; Mohammad Salahuddin for CCDM, Audit; Monjur Alam for Medical, Welfare; and Kazi Inam for Bangladesh Tigers.
