Sports Desk: After the corona positive report of Bangladesh bowling coach Rangana Herath, 9 cricketers and support staff who came in contact with her were taken in isolation. Although it was announced on Thursday, no new corona positive report has been received. However, as an extra precaution, the entire Bangladesh team has to stay in isolation till December 21.

Bangladesh selector Abdur Razzak told Jago News this information. Abdur Razzak said, "The whole team has to stay in strict isolation till December 21. Stop doing any kind of practice, outing and gym. The New Zealand authorities have taken this measure as part of special security. However, the good news is that there is no news of a new positive in the Bangladesh team. Staying in isolation till December 21 means that the two-day warm-up match that the Bangladesh team had set for the match could be a bit of a problem. Because, after the end of isolation on the 21st, you can't play a practice match without practicing for a day or two. In that case maybe or a preparation match could be reduced.

However, the team management has not yet informed about this. Nor was the schedule of the two pre-scheduled preparation matches announced. Now everything will be decided, after coming out of isolation on December 21. Sri Lanka's Sri Lankan spin bowling coach Rangana Herath was the first to test positive for corona last Wednesday.

Nine cricketers, including Mominul Haque, who came in contact with him at that time, were sent to isolation. However, on Thursday, Bangladesh team leader Khaled Mahmood Sujan said, "No one has been attacked again."
