Unsatisfied with the overall umpiring in the first Test match, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has decided to file an official complaint to the International Cricket Council (ICC). They will also complain about the sledging their players had to face in Durban.
'We have already lodged one complaint about the umpiring after the ODI series. The match referee [Andy Pycroft] had an argument with our manager Nafees Iqbal, but then we gave him a written complaint. We will lodge another official complaint about this Test match,' said BCB cricket operation chairman Jalal Yunus to Cricinfo.
