Tamim unlikely to return to Bangladesh's T20I setup

Bangladesh Cricket Board president Nazmul Hasan said on Saturday (January 22) that opener Tamim Iqbal is probably not going to include in T20 internationals in future as he isn't excited about playing the arrangement. Tamim, who missed a line of T20s because of wounds, displayed his accreditations in the continuous Bangladesh Premier League, hitting consecutive half-hundreds of years for Minister Dhaka in their initial two games. With the following ICC World T20 booked for this present year, the stage was set for Tamim to get back to the configuration during the home series against Afghanistan. Notwithstanding, Nazmul expressed that the board would rather not push any player to play a specific organization. "Tamim has played well and he is in every case great," Nazmul told journalists on Saturday. "At the point when I talked with him last time you can say I mentioned him to make a return into T20Is. I have spoken with him on phone and he just said 'kindly don't push me since, supposing that you push me normally I should return yet I would rather not play in this configuration'. In the wake of paying attention to this I felt there is no good reason for asking him (to reevaluate his choice) since, in such a case that somebody would rather not play any organization there is no reason for driving him to play,'' he said. Nazmul added that he wasn't certain with regards to Shakib Al Hasan's choice to before long abandon one arrangement considering the all-rounder guaranteed him that he will be accessible in each configuration from January. Shakib prior said that proceeding to highlight in every one of the three arrangements going ahead is close to unimaginable for him as a result of the pandemic-authorized quarantine limitations. "Presumably he said this (taking a choice on his Test future) after the last discussion we had in light of the fact that he let me know that from January he is accessible in each organization and won't miss any games and normally that incorporates Tests," Nazmul finished up.
