Bangladesh Cricketers End Boycott, BPL Resumes After BCB Concessions

  • Bangladesh cricketers called off their boycott, allowing the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) T20 matches to resume on Friday.
  • The boycott was initiated after senior national players revolted against BCB director Najmul Islam for disparaging comments.
  • The BCB responded by removing Najmul as head of its finance committee, a key demand from the players.
  • Mohammad Mithun, president of CWAB, confirmed the resumption, stating that some compromises were made for the game's greater interest.
  • The abandoned BPL matches from Thursday, Chattogram Royals vs Noakhali Express and Rajshahi Warriors vs Sylhet Titans, are now being played.

Why It Matters: Bangladesh cricketers ended their boycott, leading to BPL resumption, after BCB addressed player grievances.
