The BCCI has imposed a two-year ban on Boria Majumdar for “bullying” senior wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha and barred him from interviewing registered players and entering stadiums in the country.


According to an internal communication by BCCI, sent to its state units on May 3, Majumdar won’t be given media accreditation for two years as part of the sanctions ratified by the Apex Council of the cricketing body.


On February 25, the BCCI had formed a three-member committee a few days after Saha alleged on social media that he was bullied for an interview. While Saha had initially refused to name the journalist, he later identified the scribe as Majumdar.
