A Message from Darren Stevens

I would officially like to thank the tribunal for their verdict today and in particular their determination of not guilty findings in charges brought against me by the Bangladesh Cricket Board.

This has been a long journey and I would like to express my gratitude to my partner Katie, my family, friends, Kent County Cricket Club, my fellow peers, legal team and all those who have supported me.

I can assure all of the fans of the Dhaka Gladiators, the people of Bangladesh and all cricket followers, that I have always played the game of cricket honestly, with integrity and to the best of my ability.

I have loved playing cricket in Bangladesh, as well as everywhere else in the world and I hope that I will be allowed to continue to play cricket globally.

Thank you for all your support, and assalamualaykum.
