The Federation of International Cricketers' Association (FICA) said yesterday it will join players in legal action over unpaid wages by the Bangladesh Premier League, calling the situation a joke


Bangladesh's inaugural Twenty20 league was held in February and attracted a host of overseas players, including Australians, but at least 12 have not been paid their full dues, amounting to over US$600,000, FICA said.

In addition, local Bangladeshi players have received, on average, less than 60 percent of their wages, with only eight paid what they are owed.
