BCB Summons Litton Das Over Unreported Trip to China

The board is checking his explanation with its medical committee before deciding if his travel breached the code for centrally contracted players.

Overview

  • Litton Das, who has been sidelined with a calf injury, was called before the Bangladesh Cricket Board disciplinary committee and gave a statement at a hearing on Sunday.
  • Reports say Das travelled to China after Bangladesh’s tour of Zimbabwe without informing the BCB while he was due to fly to Singapore for a specialist assessment.
  • The BCB treats unreported foreign travel by centrally contracted players as a possible Code of Conduct breach and has opened the matter to set an example on discipline.
  • Board director Sirajuddin Mohammad Alamgir said the player’s account was heard and now the BCB will cross-check that version with its medical committee before any final action.
  • The case comes as Bangladesh’s white-ball schedule shifts, with a proposed India tour nearing approval and a T20I series with Afghanistan set to be rescheduled, increasing scrutiny on squad management.
