Aminul Islam Bulbul took over as the new president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) in May this year. After taking charge, he is trying to take cricket forward. However, the current board of directors does not have a long term. That is why the next election is under discussion.
Many people are wondering whether Bulbul will be in the next election or not. In that case, Bulbul will have to go through two steps. First, he will have to be nominated by the NSC as a board director. Then, he will have to be elected as the president by the board directors. However, Bulbul is not thinking about the election and is focusing on his own work.
When asked about becoming BCB president again when he faced the media in Chittagong on Thursday, he said, ‘Many things are beyond his control.’
Later, Bulbul said, ‘My personal wish… Look, I came here suddenly and came with a responsibility. I had everything permanent. I left everything for the country. I did that work as long as possible. Later, I have no hand in it.’
Two board directors were chosen from the National Sports Council for the BCB board of directors. Bulbul said, ‘I and Fahim bhai are councilors of the NSC. It depends on many things. First, the NSC will have to make me a councilor. Then a board will come, and the directors of that board will make me the president. It is a long way off. Now I am focusing on my work.’
