It is reported that Australian Chief Coater Justin Langer has argued with the board’s staff about the video posted on the Cricket Australia (CA) website. The video shows Bangladeshi players celebrating their first series win over Australia last week. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Langer and Australia manager Gavin Dovie were seen discussing the video on Cricket.com’s website. The debate followed the third game of the recently concluded five-match T20I series, with Bangladesh winning 3-0.
Host Bangladesh won the five-match T20 International Series 4-1. Dovey initially proposed the matter to the Australian digital staff, but when he disagreed, the matter escalated, later denouncing the Langer staff. According to the report, “It is not appropriate to post a Bangladeshi song on the CA managed website.” “At least a dozen people have witnessed the incident and some players have been uncomfortable with it.

Langer did not comment on the matter but Dovie said, “A healthy team atmosphere includes honest and frank discussion, whether it be between players, support staff or others involved in the team environment.” He said there is a difference in opinion and that we disagree on a particular issue. It was a matter of being private. I take full responsibility for this. CA has two digital media operators in Bangladesh.
