The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has issued a formal statement to address recent rumors regarding the compensation for players who participated in the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2023. Some reports have sug💮gested that the cricketers have yet to receive their payments, nearly nine months after the tournament’s conclusion.
BCB clarifies the delays in player’s payments
In its statement, the BCB clarified that the delay in payment was not due to any fault on the board’s part. The BCB attributed the issue to tax-related formalities and compliance challenges rather than any administrative oversight. Despite the timely submission of invoices, such delays are not uncommon following ICC events, and the board assured that a resolution is imminent.
To expedite the resolution, the BCB has enlisted the 🐷expertise of 😼the renowned international accounting firm Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP. The board expressed confidence that players will receive their due compensation shortly.
“The BCB strongly refutes the untrue remarks made by the concerned councilor and vehemently protests the insinuations of malpractice against the Board and its officials on this matter. Such allegations are baseless and undermine the integrity of the BCB’s operations,” the statement emphasized.
