Who benefits from Bangladesh tour?
In the National , Osman Samiuddin writes that only the PCB and the Bangladesh board president Mustafa Kamal will benefit from the proposed Bangladesh tour of Pakistan
Mustafa Kamal, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) chairman, has often dangled the prospect of a visit to Pakistan to curry favour, amounting until now to a string of broken promises.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has long been wary. But their need for international cricket to resume in Pakistan has compelled them into the agreement whereby both boards nominate Kamal for the ICC vice-presidency and eventual presidency (it is their turn under the ICC's current rotational system of presidential appointment in which two boards put up a joint candidate). In turn, Kamal sends Bangladesh for a tour.
