Bangladesh team to face inquiry

The Bangladesh cricket team will face a formal inquiry after their dismal performance at the World Cup which the media said brought `shame' on the country, reports said on Monday.

"A committee with a retired bureaucrat and army officer who have good cricket knowledge will be set up and they will talk with everyone from the coach, team members and even myself," Ali Asghar Loby, president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCC), said. Loby, whose resignation was demanded during a demonstration in Dhaka on Sunday, indicated the team's Pakistani coach Mohsin Kamal and other officials would be fired.
