The Bangladesh government's inquiry team discovered evidence of vote manipulation, bias, and coercion in the October 2025 Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) elections. The five-member panel, directed by retired justice AKM Asaduzzaman, presented its conclusions to the sports ministry on Sunday, according to ESPNcricinfo. The committee repeatedly cited a lack of cooperation from BCB's highest officials. Former BCB president Aminul Islam stated in a recent interview that he did not attend a face-to-face meeting with the panel, instead electing to submit a written statement.
Despite this, the commission discovered that both BCB officials and individuals from the sports ministry were implicated in election violations.

The NSC sports director, Mohammed Aminul Ahesan, read the government's assessment at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon, saying, "The election process was not free, fair, or transparent. Voters were intimidated, and procedural errors were widespread.
Ahesan argued that the government had adequate grounds to dissolve the Aminul-led BCB board. He concluded his press briefing by announcing the 11 members of a new ad hoc committee to monitor the BCB for the next three months. Tamim Iqbal, the former Bangladesh captain who accused Aminul of misusing his position as BCB president just four weeks before last year's election, has been named the next BCB president.

"On March 10, 2026, Mr Shariful Alam and other former council members filed a case against the district and division sports associations. The objection concerned the deadline for submitting councillors' names from this category. On September 1 and 2, the concerned authorities received letters informing them that the submission deadline was September 17. The BCB delayed the deadline to September 19 and then September 22. The committee believed that this deadline was prolonged without appropriate justification and for ulterior objectives, such as replacing previously nominated councillors with preferred individuals and creating prospects for them to be elected as directors," Ahesan stated.The committee stated that Aminul and Nazmul Abedeen Fahim used undue influence to acquire councillorships in the 2025 BCB elections and posts in Dhaka's ad hoc committees, which Ahesan deemed a significant abuse of authority.Based on the comments of the other directors examined, the committee concluded that Mr Aminul Islam Bulbul was not duly permitted to select 10 councillors from among former cricketers," the statement read.

"In addition, Article 9.3.3 of the BCB Constitution states that the President does not have the authority to select ten former cricketers as councillors unilaterally. As a result, Mr Aminul Islam Bulbul, the BCB President, went above his authority by unilaterally naming ten former cricketers as councillors. This is an obvious misuse of authority and a breach of the BCB's constitution. The committee concluded that Mr Aminul Islam Bulbul's unilateral nomination of ten former cricketers had a substantial impact on the election process, as he obtained advantages from those councillors and may have affected the election outcome," the report noted.

The investigation concluded that Aminul and NSC officials corrupted the e-voting process, as evidenced by voter interviews describing the system as "pre-planned."The committee discovered that e-voting was conducted from a certain place, and the vote's confidentially was not protected, which violated basic democratic values and the BCB constitution," according to the study. "Again, the majority of these voters were present at the polling location on the day of physical voting by e-voters. Although there was an opportunity to vote directly, e-voting was carried out by gathering in one location at the Sheraton Hotel in the capital on the night of the 5th (October 5), and the committee suspected vote manipulation."
