BCB Confirms Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan for Champions Trophy
It is noteworthy that Shakib Al Hasan had some political problems that led him to enter the country. In addition, his unconventional bowling action was also discussed. He forced him to get a clearance again to bowl in international cricket and other home competitions.
On the other hand, Tamim Iqbal has already started preparations for BPLโs new season, and with the recent good performance, the giant has made a good case for him in the CT squad.
โIf no player is retired, he is available for choice (for Champions Trophy). Shakibโs issue is a different point and there is nothing new. He is in a mental state to play in the last West Indies tour, and now Shakib will say that BPL will play his. What is the state I canโt say anything because I donโt have an update about him, โFarooq Ahmed said Cricket

As long as Tamimโs question is, see what the chief selector has said. No strategy and if a player is still retired and the selection committee needs the team, the selection committee will have to talk to that particular player,โ he added.
Moreover, after his tenure in December, the president also talked about how he would decide on the leadership of Najmul Hussain Shanto. โWe have just completed a series and nothing beyond the Champions Trophy because the children will play BPL as it is in our hands. We have not discussed anything in this regard. BCB will discuss when the time will come,โ Farooq said.
