Metropolitan magistrate Rashed Talukder has cleared Bangladesh pace bowler Rubel Hossain to represent his country during the 2015 World Cup just three days after he was granted bail.

Hossain was initially denied bail after being accused of raping and lying about his intentions to marry 19-year-old actress Naznin Akter Happy.

Hossain will now apply for his World Cup visa at the Australian high commission.
