The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has turned down a request of some of its players to resume practicing at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium due to security reasons, as the outbreak of the Coronavirus epidemic is not yet over. Bangladesh's wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim is one of the players to whom, the board has not been allowed to practice at the stadium.

The BCB has also not allowed its players to train at the stadium, as the board is yet to disinfect its facilities. BCB Chief Executive Officer Nizamuddin Chaudhary has said, "Mushfiqur Rahim communicated with us, he wanted to start personal training, but we told him that there is no safe time to do that now, he should train at home. Training is important, but the safety of the players is more important to us. "

According to the BCB, "Some other players also wanted to know if they could do individual training, but our message was the same for everyone. We are working on making our facilities playable but the work is not yet complete." The lockdown has also been lifted in Bangladesh since May 31, but the situation is not normal, as more than 55 thousand cases have been reported here, while 746 people have also died due to corona.

Nizamuddin Chaudhary has further said, "We need to consider the whole situation. We cannot do anything. Many countries are starting their activities. We will definitely do the same. We are working to disinfect the things required for training after Eid, and it is in the process. After its completion we can say that we are ready to start cricket training again. "
