Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed oversleeps, misses key T20 World Cup game

In a shocking development during the ICC T20 World Cup’s Super 8 stage, Bangladesh surprised fans and analysts by fielding only two pacers against India. The decision came after Bangladesh’s vice-captain, Taskin Ahmed, was found missing in the Bangladesh dressing room.

Ahmed missed the team bus from the hotel to the stadium due to oversleeping, leading to his last-minute exclusion from the match.

As the Bangladesh cricket camp dealt with this development, Ahmed expressed regret and apologised to his teammates for his tardiness. The incident unfolded just before the high-stakes match at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, where Bangladesh faced team India.
