A heated altercation followed by a scuffle took place on the second day of the four-day match between the Bangladesh emerging team and their South African counterparts at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Wednesday.
The incident unfolded during the 104th over of Bangladesh’s innings, involving Bangladesh’s Ripon Mondal and South Africa’s Tshepo Ntluli.
The clash began after Ripon hit a six off Ntluli’s first ball of the over. Immediately following the shot, Ntluli approached Ripon and pushed him, leading to a tense confrontation. Ripon attempted to push Ntluli away multiple times, but the South African player persisted. The situation escalated further when Ntluli grabbed Ripon’s helmet and pulled it, resulting in a physical scuffle between the two players.
