Dhaka: A Bangladeshi cricket team conceded 92 runs in just four balls to lose a match in what they called a protest over biased umpiring in their league.
In the 50-over match of Dhaka 2nd Div League yesterday, Lalmatia Club were dismissed for just 88 off 14 overs before opponents Axiom Cricketers reached 92-0 off just four balls.
Lalmatia's opening bowler Sujon Mahmud sent down 13 wides and three no-balls in the first over and all of them raced to the boundary, costing his side a further 80 runs.
Axiom opener Mustafizur Rahman struck three fours in four legitimate boundaries to take his side home in just 0.4 overs to complete a 10-wicket win. Lalmatia Club secretary Adnan Rahman said his player bowled the wides and no-balls deliberately as a mark of protest for poor umpiring.
The secretary alleged the umpires did not even allow the team captain to see the coin after toss.
