Bangladesh's Test captain, Najmul Hossain, is likely to resign from his position after the two-match series against Sri Lanka. A close source confirmed this development to Cricbuzz on Saturday. The decision is understood to be influenced by Najmul's dissatisfaction with recent events, including the manner of his removal from ODI captaincy, which was announced during an emergency Zoom meeting by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) on June 12, where Mehidy Hasan Miraz was appointed as ODI captain for a year. Najmul was reportedly taken aback by BCB's decision, as he had planned to lead the ODI team and had already discussed plans with some players for the Sri Lanka tour. The sudden announcement of his removal from ODI captaincy came as a shock, especially since he was preparing to meet national head coach Phil Simmons about the squad for an upcoming three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. BCB president Aminul Islam denied any public dissatisfaction from Najmul over his removal as ODI captain. He claimed that the decision was made with everyone's consent in the board and that Najmul took it sportingly. We decided to have a new and different plan, Aminul said, explaining their rationale behind appointing different captains for each format of the game. Shanto entered the record books by slamming twin centuries in the recently concluded 1st Test versus Sri Lanka in Galle. He scored 148 in the first inning and backed that with 125* in Bangladesh's 2nd innings. This was the second occasion of Shanto slamming twin hundreds in a Test match. Earlier, he slammed 146 and 124 in the 2023 Mirpur Test versus Afghanistan.
