Aminul Islam Becomes Bangladesh Cricket Board President, Promises Fresh Start for the Game

Dhaka, October 7, 2025 — Former Bangladesh cricket captain Aminul Islam is the new Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president. His election marks a big milestone for the sport. He is the first former national captain to lead the board.
The election took place in Dhaka on Tuesday. Aminul secured a strong majority, defeating long-time president Nazmul Hassan, who had served since 2012. Many cricket fans and analysts believe this victory signals a new era for Bangladesh cricket.

Focus on Growth and Transparency

After the announcement, Aminul thanked the board members and fans for their trust. He shared his plans to strengthen domestic cricket and support young players. “Bangladesh cricket has grown fast, but now we must build stronger foundations,” he said.
He added that modern training, better facilities, and professional coaching are key to future success. In addition, Aminul promised to bring more transparency and accountability to cricket management. His plan also includes expanding women’s cricket and creating more opportunities for young athletes.
Fans and former players have welcomed his leadership warmly. They described it as a “fresh beginning” for Bangladesh cricket. Aminul’s long career as a player, coach, and ICC development officer gives him deep insight into the game’s challenges. Therefore, many believe he can connect both administrators and players effectively.
As Bangladesh continues to rise in international cricket, Aminul’s leadership comes at a perfect time. His goal is to unite everyone behind a shared vision of progress and excellence. The new president will officially take charge later this month at the BCB headquarters in Dhaka.
