Out-of-favour Bangladesh women’s team pacer Jahanara Alam has alleged that captain Nigar Sultana ‘beats up’ junior cricketers, a charge that has been rejected by the country’s cricket board as ‘baseless and unfortunate.’
“This is nothing new. Sultana beats up the juniors a lot. Even during this World Cup, the juniors told me,” Alam told the daily.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) moved swiftly to dismiss the allegations.
“The BCB categorically and strongly refutes these allegations, which are baseless, fabricated and devoid of any truth,” it said in a statement.
