Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) had issued a show-cause notice to director M Najmul Islam over controversial comments he made about cricketers, setting January 17 as the deadline to respond. However, Najmul failed to submit his reply within the stipulated time. On January 18, he personally visited the BCB office to hand in his response, a move confirmed by BCB director and Chairman of the Board’s Disciplinary Committee, Fayazur Rahman.

According to Fayazur Rahman, the initial review of Najmul’s response appeared positive. The committee will take a final decision on the next course of action after thoroughly examining the submitted reply. In his written response, Najmul reportedly stated that his comments had gained him popularity. The BCB has yet to announce any disciplinary measures or outcomes, but the matter remains under careful consideration by the Disciplinary Committee, which will evaluate the implications of his remarks before making any formal decisions.
