Sabbir Rahman and Elias Sunny have represented Bangladesh in international cricket. Speaking to ESPNCricinfo, Elias Sunny said:
Sabbir Rahman is not new to controversies. He was banned for six months for abusing a fan on social media and also lost his national contract for physically assaulting a fan during a first-class game in 2018.
During the 2015 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), Rahman was fined half of his salary for a severe breach of discipline in the team hotel.
