BULAWAYO: Mushfiqur Rahim will quit as captain of Bangladesh after two Twenty20 Internationals against Zimbabwe this weekend.
Wicketkeeper-batsman Mushfiqur made the announcement after Bangladesh lost the third One-day International by seven wickets on Wednesday, conceding an ODI series to Zimbabwe despite beating them by a record margin in the first match.
“This is probably my last tour as captain,” he told reporters after Wednesday’s defeat. “I will resign once we get back to Dhaka.
“The reason is the way we lost the games and at the same time I failed to perform. I think I failed to lead my team, so the two T20 matches will be my last as captain.”—AFP
