He passed the fitness test. Then why did he say in front of the media that he was not fully fit? If he was not fit then how did he get the green signal to play? If he had a problem regarding this, he should have gone to the physio or come to us. What was his intention behind saying this to the media? International cricket doesn’t work like that. We never tolerated this and won’t do it in the future.

Aged 34 years and 108 days, why did you retire so soon? Is it really that you are no longer able to continue? Or is there some sort of pressure that forced you to do so? Maybe many of your fans will look answers of these questions – they will search for answers today and maybe for a long time to come.

It’s been a long journey with you [both] on and off the field with lots of moments & memories together. I’m grateful to you because of all the support you gave us as a brother and captain. We will miss you Tamim bhai

Back when I was young and started understanding cricket, I used to watch and enjoy Tamim bhai playing. Didn’t think that one day I will have the fortune of playing alongside him. My debut match too came under Tamim bhai’s captaincy. I am proud to have played cricket alongside a legendary cricketer. You will be missed a lot in international cricket.

We batted together, shared a dressing room. Had a lot of memories together. Can’t believe you will not play for Bangladesh anymore. Will miss you badly vai. All the best for your future life.
