<i>Cricket terrorised</i>
The 2nd phase super league match of the Metropolis 3rd Division Cricket qualifiers between Sheikh Russell KC and Fear Fighters SC was abandoned terming unplayable ground although the venue, City Club ground in Mirpur, was in good condition on Monday.
A Fear Fighter official told UNB that they were waiting for the match at the venue. Suddenly they saw a terror group of 10-12 youths entered the ground at about 11:30 am and forced the match officials to abandon the match terming “unplayable field” due to overnight rain.
The terror group said no match will be held today and forced the Fear Fighters team to leave the field.
The worried players and officials of Fear Fighters team left the field and later umpires declared the match abandoned giving one point each to both the teams.
