Everything was fine. The cricketers of the Zimbabwe A team were present on the field as per the schedule. Suddenly, the sky was covered with black clouds. In a moment, torrential rain fell. They were forced to practice indoors and in the gym. The first one-day match between Zimbabwe A and Bangladesh A team to be held in Bogra became uncertain due to the rain that lasted for about 30 minutes. The future of the match now depends on ifs and buts.

After a long time, the Shahid Chandu Stadium has been in a state of excitement for the visit of an international cricket team. Along with the internal renovations, the groundsmen are also quite serious about the wicket and outfield. At the very moment when the field was ready for play after working day and night, the rain this afternoon messed everything up. Although the efforts of the ground staff did not damage the center wicket and practice wicket, the outfield has become unplayable due to waterlogging. Water is accumulating on all sides of the field.

This afternoon, water was also seen around the center wicket. As a result, there is concern about the first one-day match on Monday. Looking at the actual condition of the outfield, it seems impossible to play on this field after a day. However, after talking to those involved in the construction of the field, it has been revealed that if it does not rain tonight and tomorrow (Sunday), then the first one-day match is possible on Monday. But if it rains again in the meantime, there is no chance of the match on Monday.

Meanwhile, the Bangladesh A team was supposed to reach Bogra on Saturday, but they did not come. Tomorrow (Sunday) morning, the Bangladesh team is supposed to arrive in Bogra and practice at Shahid Chandu Stadium in the afternoon. On the other hand, the cricketers of the Zimbabwe A team, who had already arrived in Bogra, came to the stadium for practice as scheduled today and were faced with rain. Some of them were forced to practice indoors. Some spent their time at the gym.

Amidst the intense heat, a sudden rain has cast a dark cloud of disappointment over the minds of cricket lovers in Bogra. After a long time, they are afraid of losing despite getting the opportunity to watch international-level cricketers play at home. Thousands of spectators did not get the chance to enter the field despite buying tickets for the BCL T20 due to the rain. This time, cricket lovers in this region are calling on the authorities in the hope that the rain will not wash away the dreams of the spectators.
