Kicking off in the Dhaka Premier League again.

Deserves a life-ban for the amount of controversies and disciplinary issues he has been a part of. Disgraceful!!!!

If cricket had a 'Red Card' system, Bangladesh would have been the first team to have been disqualified from competing. Bunch of ******* they are! Absolute disgrace!

It started with Mushfukir assaulting some guy during a match, then Shakib and now Sabbir! This has trickled down in their system too- Dunno how many of you saw the U-19 World Cup, where they somehow beat India in the final- their players were way out of line and that sort of behaviour isn't expected from teens representing their country. Man, the ICC really needs to grant more powers to match referees here. (Personally be happy if they banned Bangladesh altogether from cricket for disciplinary reasons)

People say Bangladeshi cricketers can get very emotional and transpires into actions like this, but they've got no sense of self control and decency. Add to that, the BCB will never come down hard on these guys for their actions.
Have you met Mr Nazmul Hussain, their board president ? :p

A cuckoo of the first order, who claims prophetic things without ever having played at the highest level. One of their blokes even managed to head the ICC during the CWC 2015 and made a snide remark over the 'no-ball controversy'. No wonder he went down in history as the only ICC president to not to have awarded the winner's trophy to the Champions.

I think the problems are deeply rooted within their entire system. Don't think this is going to see a solution soon.

Overreaction of the century.

The game needs to bring in discipline in some form or the other. You cannot let hooligans run the show! I stick to my statement here!

FIFA has, in the past, banned fans from a particular country from entering the stadium. ICC ought to learn more from them here.

At best you can hand out a suspension but ban is actually a bit of over reaction. But I can relate to @icyman ’s statement and I clearly understand his concern for this sport as far as discipline is concerned.

To the whole country? Based on the actions of a few? :lol
It's like banning the entire country of Australia from international cricket because of what Warner, Smith and Bancroft did.
You know India should be suspended for making pitches where the ball spins too much.
Where's the grace in exploiting someone else weakness. Athiti devo bhavo.
I am very concerned for the sport.

I did not support it but just saying that ban was a bit off the line. For sure I would suspend the players individually

Yeah India should stop playing Cricket Bharat Army fans must start playing Cricket. Our players would play drums and dance in the stands. :lol

Btw ball does spin a lot even in Bangladesh and in Sri Lanka. The teams just try playing to their strength when playing at home. The pitches in India have come a long way when we go back and see the surfaces during 2015-17 era. The surfaces in South Africa during 2016-19 were equally poor.
