Later, he confirmed the clerk of the Bangladesh Cricket that the older player himself asked the Committee himself not to offer him a contract, which was a clear hint that his career was nearby.

Many thank you to my parents, my laws, especially my father, and the most important thing is my brother Emdad Ullah, who was constantly for me from my coach and observer.
