Nat'l cricket final phase in limbo

SPORTS REPORTER
With the qualifying round of the Emirates 27th National Cricket Championship over on Saturday, the organisers are yet to decide when they will start the final round.
They have cited two reasons for delaying an announcement -weather and venue.
Although the tournament committee of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has split 13 teams into four groups for the robin league and decided to hold matches at two venues outside the capital, they have only confirmed Mymensingh for holding Group A and C games.
But the tournament committee has so far failed to confirm where Groups B and D would play.
"We wanted to make Comilla a venue, but that won't be possible because they will have to host matches of the visiting CAB under-17 team. Again Sylhet wants to become venue provided that their team is allowed to play there," said BCB advisor and tournament committee chairman Shah Nurul Kabir Shaheen MP yesterday.
He said that they haven't accepted Sylhet's proposal and that's why they haven't been able to fix the other venue.
Shaheen hinted that the Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protisthan (BKSP) could be for the other groups.
"If we cannot arrange another venue outside Dhaka then we will use the BKSP ground in Savar," he said.
The four group winners will play in the semifinals in their respective venues with the final being staged at the Bangabandhu National Stadium.
When asked when the final round would start, he said it would all depend on the weather.
"We are still hoping to start from November 6 but if rain continues for a few more days, we might defer the date," he said.
A total of ten districts and a university have qualified for the final round through zonal qualifying rounds and they will join jointchampions of the last edition Bangladesh Biman and Rajshahi in the last phase.
Following are the 13 teams according to the groups:
GROUP A: Biman, Dhaka and Bogra.
GROUP B: Rajshahi, Pirojpur and Comilla.
GROUP C: Mymensingh, Sylhet and Jessore.
GROUP D: Chittagong, American International University, Kushtia and Nilphamari.
