After the T20 World Cup, now the Pakistan cricket team has gone on a tour of Bangladesh, but the ruckus has started even before the start of the series. In fact, Pakistan's coach Saqlain Mushtaq had put up Pakistan's flag in the training camp to encourage his players, seeing which Bangladeshi fans got furious and started demanding cancellation of this series.
Bangladeshi fans were very angry after seeing the Pakistan flag in the training camp. One fan tweeted and wrote – 'Go back Pakistan… Bangladesh should cancel this series. Also, the flag of Pakistan should also be banned in Bangladesh'.
One fan said- 'Many countries come to play in Bangladesh and also practice before the series starts, but before today no country raised its national flag during the training camp. But why did Pakistan do that? What does it indicate?'
The head coach of the PAK team, Saqlain Mushtaq, raised the Pakistan flag in the training camp to boost the morale and enthusiasm of the players during the T20 World Cup. Mushtaq continued this on the Bangladesh tour as well.
On the Bangladesh tour, Pakistan will first play a three-match T20 series on November 19, 20 and 22. After this, a series of two test matches will be played between the two countries. The first Test will be played from 26 to 30 November (Chittagong) and the second Test will be played in Dhaka from 4 to 6 December.
