The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s appeal against the sanction was considered by Geoff Allardice, General Manager – Cricket, and Anil Kumble, Chair of the Cricket Committee, who after taking into account the grounds for appeal and other relevant information, came to the conclusion that the rating given by David Boon of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees was correct.
