Cricket News: Bangladesh players call off strike, to return to action on October 25

Bangladesh's cricketers have called off their strike, which they had announced on Monday (October 21), after being guaranteed by the BCB that almost all of their demands would be addressed. The players will be back to action in the National Cricket League from Friday. The players, including seniors like Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Tamim Iqbal, had announced a boycott of all cricketing activity calling for better pay and benefits among other demands. The players' decision had put in doubt their tour of India due to start in early November.
