Rain again interrupts BD-Afghan four-day Test match on Day-3

The 2nd four-day unofficial Test match between Bangladesh A and touring Afghanistan A team was also interrupted by rain on the 3rd day at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Sunday, reports UNB.

The match was called off on the 2nd day (Saturday) without a single ball being bowled due to incessant rain after the first day's play.

Monsoon rain also interrupted Friday's game when hosts Bangladesh A team scored 18 for 1 in 7.4 overs against their Afghan counterpart.

The 2nd string Bangladesh team resumed the first innings Sunday morning with first day's total 18 runs for 1 and scored 112 for 2 in 41 overs before the rain halted the 3rd day's play.

Opener Mohammad Naim, who was in batting with six runs, contributed 65 runs off 113 balls, hitting four fours an one six, before he was caught by Bashir Shah, off a Qais Ahmed delivery, leaving team total 100 runs in 33.5 overs.
