The BCB chief also accused the coach Russell Domingo and captain Mominul Haque of being responsible for the team selection and bowling combinations.

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan has expressed his displeasure after Bangladesh lost the Test series 2-0 against visiting West Indies.

Despite having a depleted squad with many big names including regular captain Jason Holder and senior batsman Shai Hope, the Windies whitewashed the Tigers. 

"Finding a solution to the problem is very simple. Things cannot continue like this. I did not want to say much after the defeat against Afghanistan. But I'm telling you now that changes will be made after this," a seething Hassan told the media after the match on Sunday.

The BCB chief also accused the coach Russell Domingo and captain Mominul Haque of being responsible for the team selection and bowling combinations.

"There are five pacers in the squad but why aren't they being played? I was informed that we'd have two pacers at least in the starting XI but why didn't that happen? I am being told one thing and then I'm seeing something else. The captain and the coach are making the decisions, not us. I will definitely want an explanation from them. Not just the coach and captain, but everyone involved," Hassan said.
