The SAFF Womenβs and Menβs Futsal Tournament is currently underway in Bangkok, Thailand, but the Bangladesh menβs team has been rocked by an unexpected decision. Vice-captain Intishar Mustafa Chowdhury has been dropped from the squad midway through the competition, a move confirmed by team manager and futsal committee chairman Imranur from Thailand.
Intishar recently represented Bangladesh in the Asian Futsal qualifiers in Malaysia and was also part of the SAFF Futsal squad. His sudden exclusion has raised eyebrows, especially as it was reportedly a decision taken internally by the Bangladesh team rather than by tournament organizers.

Discipline and Injury Issues Surface Intishar
While Bangladeshβs representatives in Thailand have issued no official statement, sources suggest that disciplinary concerns and injury issues played a role in Intisharβs removal. Such an incident is considered rare in Bangladeshi football history, where players are seldom dropped in the middle of an international tournament.
Football analysts believe the move points to a serious internal issue. Many believe that players should be given a chance to explain themselves before such a drastic decision is made, although it remains unclear whether that process was followed.

In the ongoing SAFF Futsal campaign, the Bangladesh womenβs team has collected four points from two matches, while the menβs side has managed just one point from their first two games. Bangladesh is set to face Bhutan in their third match at 7 pm Bangladesh time today, with Intisharβs exit expected to have a significant impact on team morale and performance.
