Overview
- At the Dhaka Capitals–Chattogram Royals toss at Sher‑e‑Bangla Stadium, Ramiz Raja invited fans to “make some noise” and the stands stayed largely quiet.
- Raja responded on mic that “they don’t want to make noise” before continuing the coin toss, and the exchange quickly circulated on social platforms.
- Viewers widely mocked the clip, with many comparing Raja’s patter to Ravi Shastri’s well-known toss‑hype routine.
- Others defended Raja, noting that stadium mics can understate crowd sound and that toss segments often occur before many spectators are seated.
- The viral moment arrives days after the BPL was disrupted by a January 15 players’ boycott, after which the BCB removed finance chief M. Najmul Islam and resumed matches under a revised timetable.
