Bangladesh team will go to Pakistan beforehand

Now it is being said that the Bangladesh team will leave for Pakistan on August 12 itself. Earlier the team was to leave on August 17. On the other hand, the foreign coaching staff of Bangladesh will not be able to be a part of the practice session at present because their country’s embassy has banned air travel due to the ongoing protests in Bangladesh.
A source in the Bangladesh Cricket Board said, “We cannot force the coaching staff to come here due to the ban on air travel. The situation is so bad that many police stations in the city are currently completely closed. We are considering taking the team to Pakistan soon.” Let us tell you that from August 12 till the end of the tour, all facilities including practice, accommodation will be made available to the Bangladesh cricket team in Pakistan.
