Ahead of its IND vs BAN 1st T20I in Gwalior, the Bangladesh cricket squad did not visit the city’s Moti Masjid on Friday and instead, offered prayers at their hotel, a police official said on Saturday.

“We had made elaborate security arrangements around Moti Masjid but the Bangladesh team did not turn up. No organisation had given any call to disrupt their visit,” Gwalior Zone Inspector General Arvind Saxena told PTI over the phone.
