Bangladesh bans tainted umpire Shah
(03-18 20:13)

The Bangladesh Cricket Board banned international umpire Nadir Shah for 10 years after a sting operation by an Indian television channel found him apparently willing to fix matches for cash.
“Umpire Nadir Shah will not be considered for BCB retainership for 10 years,'' the board said in a statement. “During this period he will not be eligible for any assignment under the jurisdiction of the BCB.''
