Bangladesh Cricket Board president Nazmul Hasan Papon is lying to Tamim’s statement. Cricket-based popular website Cricbuzz Papon said they had discussed the T20Is with Tamim at least four times. Papon said it was a complete lie. I have called him home at least four times and requested him to play T20. Others on the board have also spoken to him about it. Now see what he is saying!

“Despite repeated requests, Tamim has given us in writing that he does not want to play (T20) now,” he added. I don’t understand where the confusion really is. I mean, let him say what he wants. Then we will show the evidence in our hands.
