Bangladesh's squad returned to the country on Saturday after a poor Asia Cup campaign in the UAE.
The Tigers landed about 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, however none of the cricketers spoke to the media after landing at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport.
It was revealed that Bangladesh team director Khaled Mahmud Sujon stayed in the UAE with his family and will return to the country the following day.
Bangladesh, the last Asia Cup runners-up, returns to the competition without registering a single win.
Despite putting up a valiant fight, Bangladesh were eliminated from the continental event on Thursday by an agonizing two-wicket defeat to hosts Sri Lanka.
Shakib denied after the defeat that ended their Asia Cup hopes that the off-field chatter had affected them, but admitted his Bangladesh team needed to play more with their heads.
"We are very emotional. That is the other area we need to improve," Shakib said, with the World Cup in Australia on the horizon in October-November.
"Keep our emotions on the side and play the way we need to play. More looking to give our head in the game than our heart in the game."
Sri Lanka batsman Bhanuka Rajapaksa offered an olive branch to the Bangladesh players and said Shanaka's words were misconstrued.
"The statement that the captain made, I don't think he meant any wrong," Rajapaksa told reporters.
"Of course, when you compare the (dangerous) Afghanistan bowlers, what we meant was we had a slight advantage facing the Bangladeshi bowlers."
Rajapaksa added: "Like India-Pakistan, Sri Lanka-Bangladesh is also a good rivalry, but we are friends off the field. "Some words could hurt the players and hurt the staff. But what the captain meant was not what went through the media."
Prior to it, the Shakib Al Hasan-led squad was defeated by Mohammad Nabi's Afghanistan by seven wickets in their opening Asia Cup match.
The Tigers will now gear up for the upcoming T20 tri-nation series in New Zealand, which will serve as a crucial building block for the T20 World Cup in October.
