BCB take stock of player health and safety in PSL with quite a few Bangladesh internationals playing in the tournament.
BCB take stock of the situation as far as the Bangladesh players playing in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) is concerned.
In order to protect the security and welfare of their players competing in the Pakistan Super League, the Bangladeshi Cricket Board said on Wednesday that they are in communication with the Pakistan Cricket Board.
The two players competing in PSL 2025 are pacer Nahid Rana (Peshawar Zalmi) and legspinner Rishad Hossain (Lahore Qalandars).
“The BCB is in active coordination with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the Bangladesh High Commission in Islamabad to ensure that all necessary measures are in place to guarantee the security of our players,” the board stated in a release.
In the meantime, the Bangladeshi board is hoping for a successful five-match Twenty20 International trip of Pakistan, which is scheduled to start on May 25. Faruque Ahmed, the president of the BCB, stated that they are now awaiting the outcome of the situation in Pakistan before making any decisions.
“We are really working on the current situation (as far as going to Pakistan for the T20I series) and it can wait for another three to four days,” said Faruque. “Let’s see how it progress but at the moment our main concern is regarding the two players (Nahid Rana and Rishad Hossain) who are currently in Pakistan playing in the PSL.”
