No Play today!
BD A shot out for 199
Hartal postpones 2nd day
Sports Reporter
Bangladesh A were bowled out for 199 runs on the first day of the four-day game against the West Indies High Performance team yesterday, as the visitors took full advantage of the home side's inexperience against pace bowling. In reply, the West Indies side finished the day on 14 for no loss.
The match, being played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, will witness an unusual break in proceedings as the second day of the four-day game has been postponed due to the countrywide hartal imposed by various Islamic Parties today. "Since we have two extra days after this match we thought it would be best to postpone today's play. We had a talk with the police and they said that they will not be able to provide adequate security for the players due to the hartal. We also talked to both the teams and the players agreed. Considering the circumstances, we decided not to take any risks," said BCB CEO Nizamuddin Chowdhury.
