The Bangladesh cricket team faced a major setback in their T20 World Cup 2024 match against India, as veteran fast bowler Taskin Ahmed reportedly missed the game due to oversleeping. According to a report, Taskin was unable to be contacted by the team management because he was asleep in his room and as a result, he missed the team bus before the game. Despite Taskin’s late arrival, the reasons for not playing him were left to coach Chandika Hathurusingha to explain.
The decision not to include Taskin in the playing XI was surprising to fans and experts, as Bangladesh only went with Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Mustafizur Rahman as their fast bowlers for the game. Despite Taskin’s tardiness, the matter was handled without making a big issue out of it. The official clarified that if there were any issues between the coach and the player, it did not affect Taskin playing in the next game against Afghanistan.
India went on to win the match against Bangladesh by 50 runs. The Indian batsmen put up a strong performance, with Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and Shivam Dube contributing runs to secure a vital victory in the T20 World Cup 2024. While Coach Hathurusingha has remained silent on the incident
