BANGLADESH has reacted too late in trying to have the result of the Asia Cup final overturned, the Pakistan Cricket Board's chief operating officer said yesterday.
A senior official from the Bangladesh Cricket Board said on Saturday that it will ask the Asian Cricket Council to review an incident in the last over of Thursday's final against Pakistan which it believes cost the host the game. Pakistan won the final by two runs but Bangladesh says Pakistani bowler Aizaz Cheema, who bowled the final over, deliberately tried to block batsman Mahmudullah and five penalty runs should be incurred. "We are a bit surprised by this late reaction from the Bangladesh board because we believe if something was wrong the match officials would have taken action on the spot," the PCB's Subhan Ahmed said.
