As England tour of Bangladesh begins with the first ODI today, on the 7th of October, l’m watching the stands in Mirpur stadium, Dhaka as much as the play on the square. To see if any of the barmy army has turned up for this tour at all ,after all the warnings! As security concerns dominated the build up both the players and fans on the tour rather than the cricket contest. 

It appears the barmy army have not turned up. So the barmy army isn’t as barmy as they make out!!!
