DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — A players boycott which postponed matches in the Bangladesh Premier League on Thursday prompted the Bangladesh Cricket Board to force out an official after his disparaging remarks about players started the disruption.
The board removed Nazmul Islam as chairman of the finance committee to meet player demands that he resign.
Two scheduled matches in the Bangladesh Premier League and four in the Dhaka Cricket League on Thursday were not played after the cricketers — many of them Bangladesh internationals — did not turn up at the grounds.

The Giants might have won the NFL coaching carousel with the very first hire of the year. Super Bowl-winning head coach John Harbaugh will take over in New York, bringing his history of sustained success to East Rutherford.
