Faruque Ahmed took over as president of the BCB on August 21 last year. He has faced several serious accusations, including poor management of domestic cricket events and financial misconduct. The national cricket team’s disappointing performances have further undermined his position.
"The [sports] adviser hasn't told me to resign, but said they don't want me to continue," Faruque told ESPNcricinfo. "But I will not resign since I am an elected board president.
On his very first day, Faruque threatened to remove Bangladesh’s head coach Chandika Hathurusinghe during a Test series in Pakistan. A few months later, Faruque announced the suspension of Hathurusinghe and named Phil Simmons as the new coach.

"You may think I am talking emotionally, but when a country needs a soldier, he doesn't think about his salary or self-interest. Serving the nation is the first priority. I have the same mentality. I am ready to take any role in the BCB," he added.
