“Of course, it was her own decision (not to shake hands with Harmanpreet),” Babu said. “We believe sports bring the world together. We want friendly relations with all countries, not just India, and so whatever she did was entirely her personal decision.”
Nigar Sultana’s Captaincy Future Under Scrutiny After Asia Cup Exit
Nigar Sultana’s future as Bangladesh captain is now under scrutiny after complaints of misconduct. However, the BCB will wait until the conclusion of the 2026 Asian Games before deciding on Nigar Sultana's future.
“First, we will see how the team performs at the Asian Games, then decide what needs to be done,” Babu said. “There are many shortcomings in the team. We have not been able to beat the bigger teams. We played well in the World Cup too but lost because of small mistakes. We are working to make the team stronger and more competitive. After the Asian Games we will decide what can be done.”
