The first Test match between Bangladesh vs South Africa is going to start from tomorrow at Mirpur Sher e Bangla National Cricket Stadium. Mirpur’s cricket neighborhood is repeatedly making headlines with unexpected incidents where the administration is in a strict position regarding security.
There was news from the morning that Shakib’s fans would gather at the stadium gate to allow him to play. Shakib’s fans gathered in front of the Sher-e-Bangla stadium shortly after two in the afternoon. They started chanting about Shakib’s chance to play and various demands.
At one point, some people chased Shakib’s supporters with several sticks from the gate number one side of the stadium. At that time, some people were also seen being beaten on the ground. This incident continued several times from noon. The same thing happened in the evening when the report was written.
The police and army took a heavy stand in the street outside the main stadium in this incident. But small incidents keep happening in front of different gates. In the end, in such a situation, BCB may face security problems while playing in Mirpur. There is also concern about where the gallery will ultimately turn if something untoward happens.
The big question now is whether the Bangladesh and South Africa series can be finished properly in the end.
