The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has clarified why several national players, including top-order batsman Anamul Haque Bijoy and all-rounder Mosaddek Hossain, were left out of the upcoming Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) auction list. In a statement, the BPL Governing Council said the decision followed recommendations from the board’s newly formed Integrity Unit, led by independent chairman Alex Marshall. The unit is investigating potential corruption-related issues and advised that certain individuals, including players, should not be invited to participate in this season’s tournament. The BCB emphasized that this is a temporary measure specific to the BPL to ensure fairness in ongoing investigations and maintain the league’s integrity. The board also noted that this decision does not affect other domestic competitions under its jurisdiction and urged restraint in public commentary while reviews remain ongoing.
