No doubt over Australia’s tour to Bangladesh

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirmed yesterday that there was no doubt over hosting Australia in a five-match T20I series, next month.

"We are working as per our previous plan," said BCB's CEO Nizamuddin Chowdhury when asked about the latest development of the second ODI between West Indies and Australia.

Two days after the scheduled fixture was postponed, the match was set to resume in Barbados yesterday after 152 people involved in the ongoing West Indies and Australia ODI series returned negative Covid-19 test results on Friday.

Doubts over Australia's upcoming tour of Bangladesh had surfaced immediately after the postponement was declared.

However, Australia is now expected to arrive in Bangladesh on July 29, for a five-match T20I series against the Tigers.
