ICC Promises Funding to Bangladesh

Bangladesh Cricket Board President Nazmul Hasan said on Saturday (September 4) that the International Cricket Council (ICC) has promised them a significant increase in their revenue in the next cycle starting 2023. The BCB chief insisted that the board had challenged. As the governing body of cricket, he believes that the funding he receives from the ICC is unjust. And now they are hoping to get as much as Cricket Australia in the next cycle.

In the Future (ICC) Funding Will Increase:

“Future (ICC) funding will increase. From 2023, we will get a lot more,” Najmul told reporters on the sidelines of an event in Dhaka.
