Emergency Meeting of the BCB Executive Committee
TigerCricket.com Report
17-September-2008

An Emergency Meeting of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) Executive Committee was held today (Wednesday) at the BCB’s Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium office where the Board discussed the ‘Letter of Retirement’ submitted by a number of BCB contracted players. The Board took the following decisions in line with the International Cricket Council (ICC) policy on unauthorized cricket events which will be applicable from now on:

1. The Board decided to impose a ban of ten (10) years on players, officials and technical staff of the BCB who participate in cricket events which are not authorized by the ICC and BCB. The player, official, technical staff concerned will be banned from all events and competitions organized by the BCB and will not be allowed to use BCB facilities.

2. The Board is also looking into legal technicalities for taking appropriate proceedings against the players who have reportedly joined the Indian Cricket League (ICL).

3. The Board has also decided to review the existing format of the contracts with players to discourage such abrupt action by cricketers in the future.
