Bangladesh awaiting confirmation from PCB for final leg of series

Pakistan has reported 31 confirmed cases of COVID 19 so far with almost 20 or more from Karachi, the city which was to host the final leg of the tour. This will be a big concern for both the boards as the pandemic sweeps the World while BCB has informed it wouldn’t accommodate a last-minute change in the venue owing to security issues.

BCB chief executive Nizamuddin Chowdhury confirmed that the board is awaiting a final decision from the PCB over the fate of the series as they are the hosts. Chowdhury is concerned over the unclear stand of the hosts and is expecting a quick and final decision from them.

“You are probably informed that least 9 to 10 cricketers returned back from their ongoing domestic tournament (PSL) and as a touring country we are waiting for their decision. The travel advisory have also given us different opinions and we are quite concerned about it. We are hopeful that PCB will announce their stand on the upcoming tour and announce their decision soon," he concluded.
