Tigers safely in Harare


The Bangladesh cricket team reached Harare safely at afternoon local time yesterday for the four-match Croco Motors Series.

The Tigers landed in Harare following stopovers in Doha and Johannesburg. They are staying at the Rainbow Towers Hotel which is about a 10-minute drive to the Harare Sports Club, venue for all the matches of the series.

The only worry for the series organisers is the weather it seems with Harare reportedly experiencing persistent rain over the last few days.

Zimbabwe have named a 22-men training squad with opening batsman Terrence Duffin, who had missed the last three series due to a torn wrist tendon, coming back.

The four games are on February 4, 6, 9 and 10. The Tigers are expected to return home on February 11.
