The field wasn't up to the required standards during the 1st Bangladesh v Australia Test.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) today announced that Jeff Crowe of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees, who officiated in the first Test between Bangladesh and Australia in Dhaka from 27 to 30 August, has rated the Shere Bangla National Stadium outfield for that match as “poor.”
Crowe, in accordance with Clause 3 of the ICC Pitch and Outfield Monitoring Process, submitted his report to the ICC in which he expressed concern over the quality of the outfield.
The report has been forwarded to the Bangladesh Cricket Board, which now has 14 days to provide its response.
