Bangladesh is burning. It is boiling. So far, about 100 people have died and who knows how many are injured. The curfew imposed due to the violence demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is now affecting the Test series starting with Pakistan. This is disrupting the preparations of the Bangladesh cricket team for the Test series. Due to the curfew, Bangladeshi players are not able to practice on the field. BCB i.e. Bangladesh Cricket Board officials told Cricbuzz that they do not know when the practice sessions will start. This is because the Sheikh Hasina government has announced an indefinite curfew across the country.
