Bangladesh Oversleeps and Leaves Out Veteran Fast Bowler Taskin Ahmed from T20 World Cup Squad

The Bangladesh cricket team was without their veteran fast bowler Taskin Ahmed in their T20 World Cup match against India, as he overslept and missed the team bus before the game. Despite apologizing to his teammates, Taskin was not included in the playing XI for the game against India.

The decision to leave Taskin out of the playing XI surprised fans and experts, with Bangladesh opting for Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Mustafizur Rahman as their only two fast bowlers against India. The head coach of Bangladesh has not commented on the situation. India went on to win the match by 50 runs, with several Indian batters putting in strong performances to secure the victory in the T20 World Cup 2024.

However, the incident involving Taskin’s oversleeping and subsequent absence from the match caused some controversy. Fans and experts alike were shocked at the decision to leave him out of the playing XI, especially given his experience and talent as a fast bowler. The team management has since addressed Taskin’s apology to his teammates and moved on from the issue. While they have not commented on why he was not played in that particular game, it is likely that they were looking for fresh options or wanted to give other players a chance to showcase their skills. Whatever the reason may be, it is clear that Bangladesh still has a strong squad capable of competing at a high level in international cricket matches.
