Bangladesh Cricketers End Boycott, Demand Apology from BCB Director Nazmul Islam

  • The Cricketers’ Welfare Association of Bangladesh (CWAB) called off its boycott of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) after reaching a resolution with the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
  • Cricketers had demanded the resignation of BCB director M Nazmul Islam for 'objectionable comments' questioning their performance and financial investment.
  • BCB sacked Nazmul from the finance committee, stating it was in the organization’s best interests, leading to the resumption of BPL.
  • Players, however, are still demanding a public apology from Nazmul, which remains a point of contention.
  • Nazmul has been served a 'show cause notice' by BCB and has 48 hours to respond, after which the matter will go to the disciplinary committee.

Why It Matters: Bangladesh cricketers end BPL boycott but continue to demand a public apology from BCB director Nazmul Islam.
