West Indies delegates to visit Bangladesh ahead of tour

A two-member Cricket West Indies inspection team is set to arrive in Dhaka on November 28 to evaluate the Covid-19 management and the security arrangements ahead of the team’s tour in Bangladesh.

West Indies are due to visit in January for three Tests and three ODIs along with two Twenty20 Internationals. There is a chance of decreasing a Test in a bid to shorten the tour in the aspect of Covid-19.

Bangladesh Cricket Board had already presented a comprehensive Covid-19 management plan to its West Indian counterpart for approval, taking first steps towards the resumption of international cricket in the country.

Dr Akshai Mansingh (a member of the ICC & CWI Medical Panel as well as a CWI Director) and Paul Slowe (Security and Safety Manager) are expected to arrive separately by December 3.
