Before the World Cup, Bangladesh’s three-match T20 series against the host USA. This is the first time that Nazmul Hossain Shantor’s team is going to face the series against the country; But before the start of the series, there are concerns about the field.

Because, the venue where the Bangladesh-United States series matches are to be held, the Prairie View Stadium in Houston has been damaged by a heavy storm. It can be said that the entire stadium is completely destroyed.

Tornadoes hit the Houston area on Friday. 7 people are reported to have been killed. Not only that, the entire Houston area is without power. 9 lakh people spent Friday night in darkness.

All temporary structures at Prairie View Stadium were completely destroyed by the cyclone. All field installations including players’ dugouts, VIP tents, sightscreens are temporary. These temporary structures were destroyed by the storm. Even the practice net is completely damaged. All the stands erected for the broadcasting authority were blown away by the storm.
Incidentally, the first match of the Bangladesh-United States series will be held on May 21. Only three days left. According to ESPN Cricinfo US correspondent Peter Della Pena, it may not be possible to get the field ready for play again by this time. As a result, there is doubt whether the first match between Bangladesh and United States will be held or not.

The USA cricket team’s practice session on Friday was moved from Prairie View Stadium to a nearby indoor stadium, writes Peter Della Pena. Officials of the United States Cricket Association are quickly monitoring the condition of the field and taking steps to fix all the damaged structures and playing facilities.

Now it is to be seen whether they can prepare the field before the start of the game on May 21 or not.
