A two-member ICC delegation that visited Dhaka earlier this week will report its findings and observations around the BCB’s governance and electoral matters to the governing body. According to an ICC media release, directors Dr Mohammed Moosajee and Tavengwa Mukuhlani engaged with “a range of stakeholders to review developments linked to the BCB.”

The BCB’s governance issues came up for the ICC’s review after the Bangladesh government dissolved the BCB board led by Aminul Islam in April. The government’s investigation committee had found evidence of vote-rigging, bias and coercion in the October 2025 BCB elections that had appointed Aminul. The government put in place in a new ad-hoc committee to run the board for three months and named Tamim Iqbal as the new board president.

Moosajee and Mukuhlani arrived in Dhaka on June 1, after which they met the BCB’s ad-hoc committee members, including Tamim. The pair also met with members of the BCB’s election commission, with the polls scheduled to be held on June 7.

ESPNcricinfo has learned that the delegation also met with BCB directors who had resigned from the previous board. Among the directors who didn’t resign, Asif Akbar and Ahsan Iqbal Chowdhury were in the group that also met the ICC delegation in a separate meeting on June 2.

Afterwards, Aminul claimed that they urged the ICC to not recognise any election conducted by or under the ad-hoc committee on June 7 or at any other time. Aminul, who still considers himself the BCB president, said that the BCB’s ad-hoc committee should correct their May 31 press release regarding the ICC delegations’ visit to Bangladesh.

Meanwhile, Bangladesh’s High Court rejected a writ petition that challenged the legality of the election schedule and the voter list for the upcoming BCB elections on June 7.

The bench of Justice Bhishmadev Chakrabortty and Justice Md Ashif Hasan passed the rejection order stating that the petition was not presented properly before it. The petition was filed on May 18, a little over a month after the country’s sports ministry dissolved the BCB’s board of directors on April 7.
