2015- Frustration over umpire Tanvir Ahmed in BPL
Back in the 2015 Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), Shakib, the skipper of the Rangpur Riders, got himself tangled in another controversy. It was during a game against the Sylhet Superstars in Mirpur. Chasing 110, the Superstars were reeling at 64 for five in the 13th over, bowled by Thisara Perera.
A good length ball from the speedster whisked passed the bat of opposition skipper Mushfiqur Rahim. Umpire Tanvir Ahmed didn’t pay heed to the Riders’ appeal. In the heat of the moment, Shakib charged towards him and hurled some stern words.
Even the commentators said that he couldn’t talk to the umpire in that manner. The Riders won the game by six runs, but Shakib got a one-game suspension. He was also fined 20,000 taka on two counts of violation during the encounter in Dhaka.
