Australia visit Oxfam’s project in city

Sports Reporter

Visiting Australia Cricket Team took a day rest after their arrival in Bangladesh to play the two-match Test series yesterday.

Any of them did not practice but they were not confined to hotel room. The cricketers visited Oxfam in Bangladesh to meet with families from Satolla Slum in Dhaka, where they learned about the living conditions of residents and met domestic workers who are part of Oxfam’s Urban Resilience Programme.

 The players took time out from their preparations for the first Test of the Qantas Tour of Bangladesh, which begins on Sunday in Dhaka’s Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.

During their hour-long stay, the cricketers heard from locals about their struggles to access decent work, as well as water and sanitation services, and saw firsthand how Oxfam in Bangladesh is working to counter these issues.
