Just a few days back, Bangladeshi women’s pacer Jahanara Alam had made massive allegations against their skipper Nigar Sultana Joty. The former claimed, that Joty physically assaults teammates, especially juniors of the team. But the BCB had refuted these allegations, and backed the skipper.

And now, Joty has opened up on these allegations. But unfortunately, she unnecessarily went on to target Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur as well. In an interview with Daily Cricket, the Bangladeshi said, “Why would I hit anyone? I mean, why would I strike the stumps with my bat? Am I Harmanpreet, that I would go around hitting the stumps like that? Why would I do it? In my personal space, if I’m cooking or something, I might bang my bat around, I might hit my helmet – that’s my own business.”

“But why would I do something like that to someone else? Why would I get physical? Just because someone says so? You can ask the other players or anyone else whether I’ve ever done anything like that.” Meanwhile, Jahanara had given a detailed account of how Joty treated the players.
“This is nothing new. Joty beats up the juniors a lot,” Jahanara said. “Even during this World Cup, the juniors told me, ‘No, I won’t do this again. Then I’ll have to get slapped again.’ I heard from some people, ‘I got beaten up yesterday.’ Even during the Dubai tour, she called a junior into the room and slapped her.”
