DHAKA-
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) said that fans are not being barred from flying the flags of foreign nations at stadiums during the World Twenty20.
The BCB reverted an earlier decision banning local fans from flying flags of other nations after intervention by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
On Tuesday, the hosts of cricket’s World Twenty20 threatened to ban local supporters from stadiums if they are seen carrying the flags of any of the other teams competing in the tournament.
The order came after an outcry over images of locals waving Pakistani flags during the recently concluded Asia Cup, also held in Bangladesh.
Following the BCB announcement, the ICC sought a clarification from the cricket board.
