Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has announced a temporary suspension of traffic on Prashika Road adjacent to Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur. The restriction will be in place from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on specific days linked to the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) Election 2026 and the Bangladesh-Australia cricket series. The affected dates include Sunday for the practice match and BCB election, followed by June 9, 11, and 14 for the three One Day International (ODI) matches.

According to a public notice signed by DMP Commissioner Mosleh Uddin Ahmed, the measure aims to ensure smooth operations and security during the events. The DMP has requested city residents and drivers to use alternative routes during the closure period. Vehicles heading toward Mirpur-1 are advised to travel via Prashika Crossing, Shialbari Crossing, Rainkhola, and Eidgah Field to reach their destinations.

The DMP commissioner has sought cooperation from all concerned to minimize inconvenience and maintain order during the scheduled cricket and election activities.
