Cricket to resume after day-long drama in Bangladesh as sacked BCB director apologises

Bangladesh cricketers ended their boycott of the BPL 2025-26 after controversial director Najmul Islam issued a public apology and was removed from his finance committee role. The standoff, triggered by Najmul's remarks about Tamim Iqbal and player compensation, saw matches postponed. Players agreed to return to action following a meeting with the BCB and CWAB.
