BCB criticises team for Harare loss

HARARE — The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has strongly criticised the Bangladesh team for the 355-run loss to Zimbabwe in the first Test in Harare.

The board also asked injured players to return home, the first public airing of frustration regarding fitness issues that have dogged the players since this season’s Bangladesh Premier League.

“The batting performance in Harare had no similarity with that in Sri Lanka,” said Jalal Yunus, the BCB’s media committee chairman.
