Bangladesh’s batter Towhid Hridoy celebrates his maiden ODI century againt India in ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at Dubai Cricket Stadium on February 20, 2025 \u2014 ICC<\/p>\n
DHAKA: The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) on Sunday, imposed a four-match ban on top-order batter Towhid Hridoy with immediate effect for showing dissent over an umpiring decision during a Bashundhara Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League (DPDCL) match.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old, who has featured in 77 international matches for Bangladesh across ODIs and T20Is, is captaining Mohammedan Sporting Club in the ongoing DPDCL.<\/p>\n
Hridoy had previously been handed a one-match suspension, which was later deferred following protests by players. <\/p>\n
However, during a recent DPDCL match against Gazi Group Cricketers at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Saturday, Hridoy once again violated the BCB\u2019s code of conduct.<\/p>\n
The batter showed dissent after being caught out, remaining at the crease in disagreement with the umpire\u2019s decision. <\/p>\n
Hridoy was thus found guilty of committing a Level 1 offence under Article 2.8 of the code, relating to showing dissent at an umpire\u2019s decision \u2014 an action that continues to draw strict penalties in domestic and international cricket.<\/p>\n
On-field officials Moniruzzaman Tinku and Ali Arman Rajon, along with third umpire Muhammad Kamruzzaman and fourth official ATM Ikram, charged Hridoy with misconduct.<\/p>\n
According to the BCB\u2019s statement, Hridoy denied the accusation and requested a full disciplinary hearing but failed to attend the scheduled session despite being informed. <\/p>\n
As per Clause 5.2.6 of the DPDCL Code of Conduct, match referee Akhtar Ahmad fined Hridoy 10,000 Taka and added one more demerit point to his record.<\/p>\n
This additional point increased his total to eight demerit points, with seven having already been accumulated from previous breaches. <\/p>\n
Under the BCB\u2019s disciplinary rules, reaching eight points triggers a four-match suspension, which takes effect immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bangladesh’s batter Towhid Hridoy celebrates his maiden ODI century againt India in ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at Dubai…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":58169,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4101],"tags":[30484,30482,4559,1406,30483,79,30481,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-58168","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-bangladesh-ban-towhid-hridoy-for-four-matches","9":"tag-bangladesh-cricket-board","10":"tag-bcb","11":"tag-cricket","12":"tag-dhaka-premier-league","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-towhid-hridoy","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114417087613816352","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58168","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58168"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58168\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58168"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58168"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58168"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
