Like Pakistan, Bangladesh cricket also often remains in the headlines due to external controversies rather than the team's performance on the field. In the recently concluded ICC Women's World Cup 2025, the Bangladeshi team once again failed to do wonders with its performance. However, during this period, on some occasions, the performance of team captain Nigar Sultana Joti and her captaincy definitely attracted attention and also garnered praise. But with the World Cup over, a sensational allegation has now been made against the captain. This allegation has been made by a player of the Bangladeshi team and has claimed that captain Nigar Sultana used to even slap the junior players.

In the World Cup 2025, the Bangladeshi team took the field under the captaincy of Nigar Sultana and stood seventh among the 8 teams. Although Bangladesh had definitely defeated Pakistan during this period. But senior fast bowler Jahanara Alam, who failed to make a place in the Bangladeshi team for this World Cup, made many serious allegations against Nigar Sultana and the coaching staff of the Bangladeshi team in an interview. The most dangerous allegation made against the captain was that she was beating the players even during the World Cup.

In an interview given to Bangladeshi newspaper 'Kaler Kantho', 32-year-old Jahanara Alam alleged that during the World Cup, she had talked to some players and these junior players said that they did not want to be slapped again. Not only this, this player also claimed that some junior players said that recently Nigar beat them up.
