Bangladesh revoke Sabbir’s contract over assault
Bangladesh batsman Sabbir Rahman has had his central contract revoked for assaulting a young cricket fan who taunted him during a match last month.
The 26-year-old was also slapped with a six-month ban from the domestic game and a fine of two million taka ($24,000) over the incident, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan said.
The national contract for Bangladeshi players was due to go into effect on January 1, 2018.
