Bangladesh seek to reverse result of Asia Cup final

 Bangladesh will ask the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) to review an incident in the final over of the Asia Cup final against Pakistan on Thursday which they believe cost them the game.   
Pakistan won by two runs after Bangladesh could score six runs only from the final over bowled by Aizaz Cheema.
Enayet Hossain Siraj, chairman of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) cricket operations committee, told reporters on Saturday that Cheema had deliberately blocked batsman Mahmudullah in the final over.
He said the BCB would demand five penalty runs which if granted could force the ACA to reverse the result.
“We have seen video footage of the incident repeatedly. It is clear that Cheema blocked Mahmudullah deliberately,” Siraj said.
“We will lodge a written appeal to the ACC very soon and will also give a copy to the International Cricket Council.”

    Last year, Pakistan players Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamer were also jailed in Britain for their role in an entirely separate ‘spot-fixing’ scandal concerning a 2010 Test match against England. An ICC spokesman said it would investigate the new allegations in Asia Cup Pakistan vs. India.
    We can all see pakistani players are not free from scandal. So don’t judge others as if u guys are holy!
    Pakistani dare not to blame the Bengal citizens!! BCB decisions have nothing to do with us! We love our players heavenly! If anything was done wrongly may Allah set it right & justice come from Him! Once again, thanks again for all the love you guys showed but don’t become stone hearted & biased by hearing 1-sided story!
  2. if it works then we can claim many results b/t india and Pak ….. This is not the way to show ur frustration BCB ….. grow up !!!! …… We Pakistani supported Bangladeshi cricket team not Bangladesh govt. or BCB officials ….. we have all sympathies with those depressed players …. but now i hope those players must be getting normal …….

    Well, there goes all the good feelings towards Bangladesh down the drain. I’m pretty sure the majority of Bangladesh cricket followers look T this as a bad move, hence we shouldn’t blame the whole nation for such a pathetic attempt at self glorification. Being a Pakistani , I will always pray and look forward to the tigers becoming one of the best in world cricket. I hope the Bangladesh board just simply matures and learn to accept defeat humbly. That’s what distinguishes good teams from great teams.
    Love from a Pakistani.
  4. I think the way BD fight and the way the final match ends,it was really the victory of cricket.Now the BD officials giving statement like this which is not good for cricket,if i was there i will give the trophy to BD people as a gift because their team played beautifully in the entire tournament.
  5. Every single Pakistani is graciously saying openly, in print media and Television shows, that even though Pakistan team may have taken the Asia Cup 2012, the true winners and heroes of the Asia Cup 2012 was the Bangladesh Team for having shown the World that they have arrived at the International Cricket Scene with their committment, hardwork, maturity and focus. This ill conceived political move by the BCB is surely going to embarass cricket fans all over Asia including Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, etc.
  6. mariyam says:
    we appreciae how bangladesh have per4m,but unfortunately whenever Pakistan win something the other team has a problem.All the respect and praised gone down the drain for tigers.
  7. Asad says:
    Pakistani fans went all out with their good wishes and even wishing that the bangalis had won but this should teach us that enough with the ‘brotherhood’ mantra be it asian, islamic, arabs they all will stab you in the back.
  8. Usman says:
    That is a really disgraceful act Bangladesh, We loved you guys but if this act goes on that would surely show the immaturity of BCB.Buy a 800 rupees cup. We dont want it You cannot take the fun away, that we had after so many years.
  9. Ifthakar says:
    Iam a Bangladeshi, and I also believe that BCB should not file any such case. Things that happened on ground should stay there, I believe it was accidental. Anywayz Iam sure we won the heart of many fellow Pakistani and Indian’s and ppl around the globe, we the nation is very proud of that.
    • A sensible approach indeed. It seems that the BCB chairman has been prompted by …who?
      I feel that people in position ought to be careful in what they are fighting for. I witnessed the Bangladeshi bowlers blocking the Pakistani batsman Shahid Afridi who was gracious enough to politely remind the bowler in question what is right.
  10. Do YOU KNOW ? WE ASIANS ARE USELESS.WE CAN ACCEPT VICTORY OF ANY COUNTRY.WE ALWAYS FIGHT WITH EACH OTHER.WHY WE DO NOT BE LIKE BROTHERS? WHY DO WE NOT CREATE BROTHERHOOD BETWEEN US?
    IF BANGLADESH CONSIDERS THAT AIZAZ CHEEMA DID NOT DO RIGHT. THEY HAD TO APPEAL ON THE SPOT BUT TIME HAD MADE A MARK.NOW PAKISTAN IS AN ASIAN CHAMPION..
  11. Moiz says:
    Did you forget the blunders of umpiring going in the favor of Bangladesh and could have effected the end result?
    Umar Akmal – Clearly not out!
    Nazimuddin was plumb LBW on the balling of Saeed Ajmal
    grOw uP ~ ~ ~
  12. sc says:
    Bunch of politician of cricket control board..We gained so much respect now we are humiliated by the politician .. what an …
  13. Nayna says:
    To all the people writing things about Bangladesh..i would request them to stop. Its written that it was BCB’s opinion not BD peoples’. So please dont blame the cricketers or the people of Bangladesh. Being a citizen of Bangladesh i can assure that we the general people had no idea about this and i am pretty sure our beloved cricketers also had nothing to do in this. It is the officials and if they think what they are saying is right then plz let the ACA be the judge. Thank you
  14. khurshid says:
    Okay lets give Bangladesh 5-run penalty which they seek from ACC. Don’t be harsh. But then demand same (five runs) for Masharfee colliding with Afridi. Pakistan still win by 2 runs!
  15. Aamir Ali says:
    I think BCB has lost a lot of money to the bookies on this Asia Cup Final and is now seeking underhanded ways to win it back.
  16. zahid says:
    I don’t think this is something the players want. Awami League trying to politicize the event and trying to add a fether to their cap…BD won Asia Cup under AL regime! How funny…and this is going to ruin everything we have achieved in this tournament.
    I was proud as a Bangladeshi 2 days ago, now I’m ashamed.
  17. Bangash says:
    Acting like this will never make Bangladesh a great team.
  18. Zubair says:
    Really REALLY disappointing! Cricket is a game of gentlemen and not immature people!
    People were praising Bangladesh for their brilliant effort in the Asia Cup in which they defeated The WORLD CHAMPION and the ‘RUNNER UP WORLD CHAMPION’ and almost defeated Pakistan in both their matches….
    And then this! Is this a way to achieve any Title? And yes…..and were not there wrong decision in the favor of Pakistan in this Final???? And didn’t Murtaza block Afridi?
  19. TM says:
    Why Bangladesh didn’t make a complain on the spot when they had this information, if it’s true, available to them at that point? Isn’t it really dumb on part of BCB to make themselves a laughing stock now?
  20. Ahmed says:
    All i know is that even the empire also said it was not cheema’s fault that they bumped. batsman is supposed to see where he’s running.
    even if it was cheema fault. could they made another run????
    could they have stopped the bold???
    NICE BANGLADESH.. All the respect you gained now gone down the drain.
  21. Ukhan says:
    This should be called “A Fall from Grace” for Bangladesh cricket…..
    You have lost all the respect that you earned during Asia Cup, after proving yourselves an incorrigble cry baby…..shame on you!!!
  22. They will loose the honour and respect they gained
  23. Salman says:
    I am pakistani and I loved the way that Bangladesh played that final and all my friends respected Bangladesh effort, but this kind of talk will take all that away. Don’t go that route. You will look stupid in front of the whole world
  24. Waqas says:
    I am Pakistani, I seriously am shocked by this act of Bangladesh cricket board. I saw Bangladesh to be the emerging team by their outstanding performance. But seriously??. try to win Asia cup like this?. Not a wise move at all. At least very discouraging for me as not being Pakistani but as a fan of cricket.
  25. Adnan says:
    Very sad! A batsman is supposed to go around the bowler. Can someone show the Bangladesh cricket board the rules? And check the video of the last over. I dont see Cheema deliberately blocking the batsman. The whole world was appreciating the Bangladesh team but i guess, everyone was wrong. This is what differentiates men from boys, immature boys.
  26. usuf says:
    Bangladesh did so so well.. They were the real winners… Ive never seen a team so so committed and play cricket with such confidence.. A team that is a real contender for T20 world cup this year…
    But this act is going to spoil all their hard-work.. They shud buk up and come up even stronger… Their loss from pakistan was more psychological .. But being a Pakistani i still believe Bangladesh surpassed all expectations!!!
  27. Shamir says:
    Mr. Rajiv- Some players take bribe and change the result of games and ruins world cricket. We are trying to seek justice for an attempted cheat that a Pakistani bowler tried in the final over to international concerned authority, not to the bookis.
    Shamir
    Bangladesh
    • such a losers attitude!!! this is not sportsmenship. they need to learn quit alot!!
    • rida says:
      shamir plz watch the video of the last over carefully clearly u can see that batsman bumped into the bowler n the umpire also is checking batsman 4 that also the commentator said at that point that its batsman`s fault “u cannot bump into the bowler” .
      Bangladesh has got every right to appeal 4 their suspicions but plz u guys played a fabulous tournament n do u want 2 win it like this?????
    • Asim says:
      If you see the video and use 1% of your mind you can see that cheema was standing and the batsman was running and batsman ran towards him and not cheema but you and your blind BCB thinks it was cheema’s fault,but you know your bowler Mortaza was doing this deliberately against afridi and he did that twice in the match.So i would suggest the PCB does the same against your Mortaza and then you STILL LOSE,what should i name you CRY BABIES or BAD LOSERS?
  28. JKhan says:
    Wow!! What can i say. the Bangladesh cricket players have earned great respect in Pakistan and over the globe. But if this thing goes ahead, i am sure they will be the losers and will lose their hard earned respect. They need to learn how to accept defeat gracefully otherwise in each match there are incidents that can be challenged.
    I wish that this should not go ahead for the sake of good cricket.
  29. fucking bingos says:
    frigging bingo’s .
    deserved what they got.
    Here we are praising the spirit of their performance and they go on to act like retards.
    loser mentality .
    Never would a Pakistani do something like this.
  30. Rahik says:
    Oh boy there goes all the love from all over the wall! :(
    But if what BCB says is true and the proof is consistently clear then i hope the entire cricket world understands the injustice!
  31. Our boys earned the hearts of millions… Please don’t take it away from them like this…
    Saadat, Tigers’ Fan
  32. And didn’t Murtaza block Afridi during Pakistans batting?
  33. nadz says:
    Yes they shouldn’t go that way especially after a week but its a bit harsh to use words like dumb and all…or is it the pressure of lost-game to them ;-) …just kidding
  34. rizz says:
    I am a Bangladeshi.
    I guess it shouldn’t be like this..it will spoil the respect we achieved until now. Cheema did a wrong thing we know, but complaining like this isn’t good enough.
    • H cha says:
      @rizz no Cheema did not do any thing wrong ! dont be a fool ! Your batsman ran into bowler. What about when your bowler blocked Afridi. Lets get 5 runs for that ! You Lost ! you lost this one, the one before, 3 before that and 29 others since 1999.
  35. Muzaffar says:
    A deliberate attempt by Awami League to politicize the matter and create gaps between Bengalis and Pakistanis getting together. Shame Awami League.
  36. biju says:
    right rajiv….. its really stupid on the parts of Bangladeshis, I feel pity for their thinking… i think they have still not grown up for the big game…
  37. mikael says:
    lol cry babies…
  38. Mahis says:
    Talk about immaturity. I guess this is because of them coming so far in such an important tournament and being unable to accept defeat. Grow up Bangladesh, grow up. This is ‘real’ cricket.
  39. Rajiv says:
    Really? …. Really Bangladesh? …. you really want to win this way? Your boys put up a valiant effort and knocked out a couple big wigs in the tournament. Almost took the final and you “lost”, albeit, it was a close game. You deserve where ever you are for the effort you’ve put in. The whole cricketing world appreciates you coming off age and now, you want to spoil it by claiming the title on the basis of a stupid technicality???
    DUMB much?
