Finally Farooq Ahmed's wish is being fulfilled. Chandika Hathurusingha's chapter ends as Bangladesh coach. On Tuesday, the president of Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) himself told the media in Mirpur's Sher-e-bangla stadium that BCB is no longer keeping Chandika. BCB's new president Farooq Ahmed announced the suspension of Hathurusinghe in an official press conference.

Even though there are a few assignments of the national team, the board suddenly dismissed the coach! Farooq said, "Before the dismissal, we have given him a formal notice of showcause. He has been suspended for 48 hours. Then we will dismiss him. Coach Phil Simmons will continue until the Champions Trophy.

Hathuru had a contract with BCB until the ICC Champions Trophy at the beginning of next year. But before that, Farooq Ahmed's board ended the relationship with this high profile coach! This was his 'second chapter' as Bangladesh coach. The first time he left the job himself. BCB has sacked him in the second stint.

One of the head coaches is coming for the upcoming Test series against South Africa. Who is from the West Indies? The board has signed him till next year's Champions Trophy.

Bangladesh has seen both good and bad performances in recent Tests. Bangladesh won a historic Test series on Pakistan soil against Pakistan. Again Bangladesh lost the Test and T20 by showing extremely bad performance.

The reason for removing Hathurusinghe from the post of coach is given by the BCB as a reason for his misconduct and dictatorial role with the players rather than a fair judgment of the team's performance. There have been allegations that the coach misbehaved with spinner Nasum Ahmed during the ODI World Cup in India last year. In view of that complaint, BCB also conducted an investigation. It was alleged that coach Hathurusinghe misbehaved with spinner Nasum by pushing him on the neck.

Coach Chandika Hathurusingh's tenure with Bangladesh was until next year's Champions Trophy. But BCB dismissed him early.

In the second term, Bangladesh played 10 Tests, 35 ODIs and 35 T20Is under Hathuru. 5 wins and 5 losses in Tests. But in ODIs, 13 wins, 19 losses and 3 draws in 35 matches. Out of 35 T20 matches, 19 wins, 15 losses, and one draw.

Youth and Sports Adviser Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan said there is no problem for cricketer Shakib Al Hasan to come to the country.

He told this to the reporters after meeting with Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials on Sunday (October 13).

He said, he will play as a cricketer and he is a citizen of Bangladesh, I don't see any obstacle in his coming. But what you are talking about writing on the wall or what you see on social media, it is actually a matter of emotions. They also have that right. A democratic country has the constitutional right to do any kind of movement or anything.

Asif Mahmud said, "My request will not be to threaten anyone's safety." If there is a legal matter, the law moves at the speed of the law. I cannot comment on this. But safety should be given utmost respect. Since South Africa will come, we have to keep the environment good too. Otherwise, foreign countries will feel the lack of security to come to Bangladesh.

Shakib has not returned to the country till now after the political change on August 5. Although Bangladesh did not play at home during this time however, this all-rounder announced his retirement from Test and International T20 in Kanpur during the India series.

If everything goes well, the match against South Africa in Mirpur is going to be the last Test of his career. However, there is still controversy about it because Shakib wants adequate security while in the country. At the same time, he also demanded that he should not face any obstacle in leaving the country. Meanwhile, the Mirpur Test will start from October 21.

Shakib Al Hasan broke the silence on the movement of students. This star cricketer has expressed regret in a status on his Facebook about being silent in the student movement. Along with that, he also explained about getting involved in politics.

Sheikh Hasina fled the country after resigning from the post of Prime Minister in the face of the mass uprising of the students on August 5. Shakib was a public representative on the Awami League ticket of the dissolved 12th Jatiyo Sangsad(JS).

The status given by Shakib expressing regret on social media Facebook is highlighted for the readers of Barta24.com.

"Assalamu Alaikum, respect for the love of every person in my country.

Your prayers and love for me have made me welcome in the world as the Shakib Al Hasan of today.

At the outset, I respectfully remember all those self-sacrificing students who were martyred and injured in the student uprising led by the anti-discrimination student movement. My deepest respect and condolences to them and their families though nothing can replace the sacrifice of a bereaved family. Nothing can compensate for the pain of losing a child or losing a brother.

I respect the sentiments of those of you who have been hurt or distressed by my absence during this critical time and I am sincerely sorry for that.

If I were in your place, I would probably be so distraught.

I was the Member of Parliament for Magura-1 constituency for a very short period of time. My involvement in politics was basically to get an opportunity for the development of the people of my birthplace i.e. Magura. You know that in the context of Bangladesh, it is a little difficult to play a direct role in the development of one's area without any specific responsibility. And my desire to develop this area makes me interested in becoming a Member of Parliament. However, at the end of the day, I am a Bangladeshi cricketer. Wherever I have been, I have taken cricket from my heart.

You have taken this cricket forward on the path to gaining the honor of the world's best all-rounder. Your love and support made me the Shakib Al Hasan of today. When I held the bat on the cricket field for the country, you all held the bat with me. Your shouts from the gallery, your support motivate me to play well. Crowds in front of televisions in tea shops on cricket match days - gave me energy.

If I win, you all win. If I lose, you all lose!

As you know, very soon I am going to play my last match. You have driven this entire journey from the beginning of my cricket career to becoming today's Shakib Al Hasan.

The whole story of this cricket is written by you! So in my last match, the last chapter of this story, I want you by my side. I want to say goodbye with all of you. In farewell, I want to hold the hands of those people whose applause made me play well. In farewell, I want to look into the eyes of those people, whose eyes have been filled with joy at my good game again in my bad game whose eyes have tricked.

I hope—not just hope—that you will all be with me in this farewell. Everyone will draw the end of that story together, the hero of the story – not me, but you!

Shakib Al Hasan is at the end of his international career. He ended his T20 career. He said that he wants to play the last match of his Test career in Mirpur. But it seems that it is not possible anymore.

First, BCB president Farooq Ahmed, then Sports Adviser Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan also informed that even if the player Shakib is safe, it is not possible to provide security about public outrage.

Today, he faced the journalists and said, "The proper security of the player Shakib has to be ensured. However, it is unreasonable to ask for security assurances against the public anger against Shakib Al Hasan, a member of parliament of the fascist government.

He also said that Shakib should clarify his political position. Commentary of the Sports Adviser, "There are two identities of Shakib Al Hasan here. We must remember this. One identity as a player, another is a political identity. He has done MP election from Awami League. People have mixed reactions to both.”

Referring to Mashrafe bin Murtaza, he said, "I think he (Shaqib Al Hasan) needs to clear his place, from the political place. It is necessary to talk about his political position. Mashrafe bin Mortuza has already spoken.

Regarding security, he openly said that he will have security as a player. But at the end he was also reminded about the issue of public anger. His words, 'Now as a player, we must give the responsibility of providing security to a player. We will give it when we come to the country. We have said about the murder case in his name, the Ministry of Law has also said that if there is no connection, it can be excluded initially.

He also said, "But if there is anger among the people because of his political identity, then... I think I have five police constables and a gunman for my security. If 16 crore people of the country, 10 crore people have anger on me, then what security will these 5-6 people give me? In that case, if the people have any anger, then I have to reduce it with my words.

Earlier, after the BCB meeting last Thursday, President Farooq Ahmed spoke about the matter. He pushed the ball into the government's court. He said in this regard, 'The issue of security is not in the hands of BCB. He (Shakib) has to decide on this. The board cannot do anything about it. BCB cannot afford to provide personal security to a particular person. The issue of security must come from the highest level of government. BCB is not an agency, neither police nor RAB. The issue of security should come from the government.
