At least BCB was sensible enough to restore Salma Khatun as the captain after Jahanara's disastrous run in the role.
I think many in general dont appreciate people who are less appealing aesthetically despite what they can offer.

The derogatory remarks people would say about Rubel and Al Amin (due to their dark skin) when they would bowl poorly was pathetic.

And when it comes to media, these days they will always try to positively focus on the attractive people than their true merit.
