‘কেউ যদি বলে প্রভাব ফেলে না, মিথ্যা কথা বলছে’

Bangladesh's Test captain, Najmul Hossain Shanto, has stated that off-field disruptions within the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) do impact the team's performance on the field. He acknowledged that while professional cricketers must adapt, such instability affects player confidence and their ability to communicate needs to the board. Shanto, who captains Bangladesh across all three formats since early 2024, believes that fostering a positive dressing room culture, where players support each other, is crucial for team improvement. He highlighted the importance of mutual respect and effort among all team members, including those not currently playing, to build team cohesion and enhance performance.

The statement highlights the direct link between administrative stability and on-field success in cricket, offering insight into player psychology and team dynamics.
