Ctg Div Stadium gets ICC nod
Sports Reporter
The Bangladesh Cricket Board's (BCB) plans to host two one-day internationals between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in January at Bogra will have to put back after the International Cricket Council (ICC) gave recognition to the Chittagong Divisional Stadium as the country's new Test and one-day venue.Three more venues -- the Fatullah Cricket Stadium, Shaheed Chandu Stadium in Bogra and Khulna Divisional Stadium -- were also in line to get the ICC's nod as international venues after the Bangabandhu National Stadium and MA Aziz Stadium in Chittagong. The decision was taken based on a report submitted by ICC inspector and former West Indian captain Clive Lloyd, who visited all four venues earlier this month. The remaining three venues almost fulfilled the world body's requirements but need some adjustments. The Fatullah Stadium in Narayanganj requires some attention to player security and reduction of travel time while Bogra and Khulna will need to build standard accommodation facilities before getting approval.
