Australia (BBN)-Bangladesh pace bowler Al-Amin Hossain will be sent home from ICC World Cup after breaking a team curfew in Brisbane on February 19.
Team Manager Khaled Mahmud confirmed to ESPNcricinfo that the ACSU (Anti-Corruption and Security Unit) informed the Bangladesh team management of Al-Amin staying outside the team hotel after the 10:00pm deadline.
“Normally if a player has to stay outside after 10:00pm, he has to take the management’s permission,” Mahmud said.
“We were not aware that Al-Amin left the hotel after that time, and were later informed by the ACSU of his transgression. He will be sent home as soon as possible.”
Mahmud denied that Al-Amin’s suspension had any links with corruption.
Bangladesh were supposed to play Australia in Brisbane on February 21, but the match was washed out.
Al-Amin has played 11 ODIs for Bangladesh since early 2014, but none at this World Cup.
