BCCI Bans Journalist Boria Majumdar For 2 Years, Accused for Intimidating Cricketer Wriddhiman Saha

In a major development, the BCCI banned journalist Boria Majumdar for two years. This happened after the Committee found him guilty of bullying, threatening, and intimidating, and ridiculing Cricketer Wriddhiman Saha. As per our sources, Boria spoke harsh and rude words against Wriddhiman when he denied an interview with the reporter. According to the BCCI, a 3-member committee was formed to investigate the matter.

A Top BCCI Official was reported saying, “We will be informing all state units of the Indian cricket board to not allow him inside stadiums. He won’t be given media accreditation for home matches and we will also be writing to ICC to blacklist him. Players will be asked not to engage with him.”

In the month of February, Saha had shared a screenshot wherein a journalist mentioned, “I don’t take insults kindly. And I will remember this.” At that point in time, however, the name of the journalist was not revealed.

After this 2-year ban by BCCI for Boria Majumdar, he won't be getting accreditation as a member of the press in India, won't be getting any interviews for registered players in India, and also won't get access to any BCCI members owned association cricket facilities.
