Tamim Iqbal Elected BCB President, Vows Transparency And Revival Of Bangladesh Cricket
Shere Bangla National Stadium: Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal has been elected president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board, promising greater transparency, improved facilities and a restoration of Bangladesh cricket's reputation after a turbulent period for the sport in the country.
The 36-year-old-the only candidate in Sunday's elections in Dhaka-will serve a four-year term, having already spent the last two months running the board's interim committee.
Tamim, after being elected, insisted it was a huge responsibility rather than an personal honour. "There is no extra feeling that I have become something really big. It is a massive responsibility. I have spoken about so many things about the cricket board for the last few years, so now I feel that this is the time when I have to prove myself to everyone."
