A shocking incident marred the Celebrity Cricket League match held in Bangladesh as a heated altercation between players escalated into a physical altercation on the field. The brawl, which took place in full view of spectators and television cameras, has left fans and cricketing authorities concerned.
The incident occurred during a match between filmmaker Mustafa Kamal Raj’s team and Dipankar Deepon’s side participating in the Celebrity Cricket League in Dhaka. The precise cause of the altercation was a boundary not given by the match officials.

Security personnel and match officials rushed to the scene to intervene and restore order but failed in their attempt.
