Bangladesh national cricket team could not fly to Oman as scheduled on Sunday morning after a tropical cyclone forced the sultanate’s Muscat International Airport to postpone all flights for now.
According to Gulf News, Oman has announced a two-day holiday for both public and private sectors on October 3 & 4 as the sultanate was lashed by cyclone Shaheen.
“International Airport has been postponed and rescheduled to further notice to avoid any risks that may result from the direct impact of climate conditions on the Airport’s operations,” Muscat International Airport authority said in a Tweet.
Dear travelers ⚠️
We would like to inform you that all flights to and from Muscat International Airport have been postponed and rescheduled to a further notice to avoid any risks that may result from the direct impact of climate conditions on the Airport’s operations. https://t.co/4OyLe5Xtqc
Sources close to Bangladesh team said they are yet to receive any message regarding a new schedule of the flight.
Tigers will travel to Oman to take part in the T20 World Cup 2021. They will play three matches of the first round of the event in Oman, and other parts of the event in the UAE.
