The disciplinary committee of Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has recommended cancelling the deal with Sabbir Rahman for assaulting a fan during a national league match.
“He is not going to remain a contracted cricketer,” said BCB President Nazmul Hassan Papon.
Papon said this while briefing the media in Dhaka on Monday after getting the panel’s report.
The panel made its report after a hearing following the match referee’s report.
The BCB president said it also recommended suspending him for six months in domestic games and fining him Tk 2 million.
According to bdnews24, the BCB held the hearing after allegations surfaced that the right-hand batsman beat up a cricket fan during a National Cricket League match in Rajshahi’s Shaheed Quamaruzzaman Stadium on Dec 21.
The middle-order batsman has been included in the initial squad for the upcoming tri-nation series.
There is, however, no ban on him to play international cricket.
“It’s not that the decisions are final. The disciplinary panel has recommended these measures,” Nazmul said.
