Bashar was part of the selection committee led by Minhajul. The third member of the group, Abdur Razzak, was retained as a national selector. Gazi Ashraf replaced Minhajul as the chief selector while Hannan Sarkar replaced Bashar.
On 12 February, the BCB boss Nazmul Hassan praised Minhajul and Bashar for their dedication and service and said they would continue to use their expertise.
A week after that announcement, Bashar started his new office.
