BCB Director Khaled Mahmud Tests Positive for COVID-19.
Former Bangladesh captain and current BCB director Khaled Mahmud tested positive for COVID-19 and is isolated at home.
Mahmud, 49, was the manager of the Bangladesh team on their recent test tour of Sri Lanka but missed the ODI series at home against the same team, which begins on Sunday.
He is also the coach of the Dhaka Premier League, which is scheduled to start on May 31. “I tested positive for corona yesterday (May 21),” Mahmud told Cricbuzz on Saturday.
“Currently I am staying home in isolation although there are no major symptoms,” added the former hitter.
Mahmud represented Bangladesh from 1998 to 2006 and played 12 events and 77 ODI. He tested negative for the virus twice upon returning from Sri Lanka before testing positive.
Mahmud did not join the Bangladesh squad that began training on May 18.
