Roger Binny, VVS Laxman to question Harmanpreet Kaur on her conduct against Bangladesh, says Jay Shah | Cricket News
BCCI president Roger Binny and head of cricket VVS Laxman will question the women’s team captain Harmanpreet Kaur for her outbursts during the recently concluded ODIs against Bangladesh, board secretary Jay Shah revealed on Thursday.
“Roger Binny and Laxman will question Harmanpreet on her outbursts during the third ODI against Bangladesh” Shah told reporters in New Delhi.
Kaur, who smashed the stumps after being given out the onfield umpire in the third and final ODI against Bangladesh last week, continued her tirade in the post-match presentation.
Following the incident, the International Cricket Council stepped in and apart from handing her a hefty fine has suspended her for two matches, which rules out Kaur for India’s first two games at the Hangzhou Asiad.
Ever since the episode unfolded, Kaur has faced severe critisism for her onfield behaviour and conduct, where she was even seen mocking the Bangladesh players during the trophy presentation. Writing in The Indian Express, former India captain Diana Edulji had called for the BCCI to reprimand Kaur for her actions as she set a bad example being a captain.
And speaking on the sidelines after the meeting with state unit officicals in New Delhi, BCCI secretary Shah revealed that the Indian board will not appeal against the two-match suspension enforced the ICC.
