Former Bangladesh cricket captain and current BCB director Khaled Mahmud has tested positive for Covid-19.

He was supposed to perform the role of the team leader of the Bangladesh team during the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka starting from May 23 in Dhaka.

“He tested positive for coronavirus and didn’t join the bio-bubble of the team,” said Akram Khan, the chair of BCB cricket operation committee.

Mahmud is currently isolating at home, Akram added.

Meanwhile, the ODI series is all set to kick off on Sunday at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.
