In the recent past there was bio-bubble trouble during the England-South Africa as the tour was quite lengthy,\u201d said Akram on Monday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cThere is a possibility that the series will proceed without one Test and two T20\u2019s,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">BCB is looking to reschedule a slew of international series which have been cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Meanwhile, according to media reports CWI is yet to confirm the series.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">CWI President Ricky Skerritt was quoted on Cricbuzz on Monday that they are yet to take a decision regarding their forthcoming Bangladesh tour adding that they are expected to make a call soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cThe tour is not finalized,\u201d he stated. \u201cThere is no final decision on anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The two-member inspection team from Cricket West Indies recently expressed satisfaction over the COVID-19 and security protocols set by BCB for the series next month. Skerritt added that they have to take everything into consideration before finalising the tour as it comprises too many matches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cThe matter is being finalized this week. We have a very packed schedule ahead in 2021 because of the postponement of so much cricket in 2020,\u201d said Skerritt when asked if they are willing to play only two Tests and three ODIs in the series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports Desk: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials hinted on Monday that two T20Is and one Test might be axed from the fixture of the upcoming home series against West Indies.
