In the T20 World Cup 2024 match between Bangladesh and India, Taskin Ahmed, a veteran fast bowler for the Bangladesh cricket team, was absent due to oversleeping. According to a report, the team management was unable to reach Taskin as he was sleeping in his room and missed the team bus before the game. A team official had to stay back at the hotel until they were able to contact Taskin, who joined the squad late at the venue. Despite apologizing to his teammates for missing the bus, 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 alike, with Bangladesh opting for Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Mustafizur Rahman as their only two fast bowlers against India. Although Taskin did play in the following game against Afghanistan, no further comment has been made by Bangladesh’s head coach on this issue. The incident caused controversy but it is now behind them as they focus on their next match.
The absence of Taskin from that particular game caused some concern among fans and experts alike, but it is important to note that every player can make mistakes and it happens to everyone at some point in their careers. The decision not to play him in that game may have been based on other factors such as form or fitness issues.
Overall, while there may have been some controversy surrounding Taskin’s oversleeping and subsequent absence from that match, it is clear that he has since moved on from it and is focused on performing well in future matches for his country.
Fans will be eagerly waiting for his next appearance on field and cheering him on as he continues to lead Bangladesh’s charge towards becoming one of Asia’s top cricket teams.
