A fight broke out when the umpire made a bad call
According to reports, the umpire’s erroneous call caused the altercation to break out between the teams of Mustafa Kamal Raj and Dipankar Deepon during the game. After the umpire made a bad call during the game, Raz’s team started teasing Dipankar Dipon’s players, which irritated the latter. The argument quickly escalated into a fight on the ground.
The ‘celebrities’ started pushing, punching, and slapping one another, which led to a fight. A couple of players began slapping and punching one another, and soon the bat attack began. The celebrities were seen hitting each other with cricket bats. Even chairs were thrown at one another by the two groups. According to reports, the altercation injured six persons. The injured individuals have been named as Shishir Sardar, Raj Ripa, Joy Chaudhry, Atiq Rehman, Sheikh Shuvo, and Ashiq Jahid.
A video of actress Raj Ripa sobbing goes viral
A video of Bangladeshi actress Raj Ripa sobbing over the umpire’s incorrect decision went viral on social media. She accused the administration of manipulating the game and asserted that the fielder’s foot had touched the boundary when the umpire should have given her a four on that specific bowl.
According to reports, Raj Ripa accused Mustafa Kamal Raj’s team of throwing water bottles at her and stated on social media that he would be held accountable if anything happened to her career. These unanticipated occurrences ultimately necessitated the cancellation of the competition.
The tournament had to be cancelled
In the end, the tournament had to be cancelled. The organizers, including Dipankar Dipon, announced that they would be providing a formal statement and justification for what happened.
Many online trolls have mocked the Bangladesh national men’s cricket team, claiming that the sport is like war in the nation since they also experience these incidents.
