According to a police statement, the 24-year-old right-handed batsman faces two counts of rape in relation to an incident alleged to have occurred in Brixton on March 30, 2024. Das was initially arrested last year during preliminary inquiries before being formally charged on July 23, 2026. The Metropolitan Police confirmed that the victim remains under the continuous care of specialist officers, and Das has been summoned to appear before London's Crown Court on October 9. Born and raised in Leytonstone, London, to parents originating from Sunamganj, Bangladesh, Das made his debut for Essex in 2020 and featured in two Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) matches for the Dhaka Dominators in 2023. Essex County Cricket Club released a statement acknowledging that a contracted male player appeared in court regarding an off-field matter, with Das remaining sidelined from competitive fixtures since late July.
