Police are investigating whether a car carrying two umpires was stoned in Chittagong after Pakistan beat Bangladesh in their one-day international series finale. Mesbahuddin Serniabat, security chief of the Bangladesh Cricket Board, said on Wednesday that police were checking whether the rear window of the car was smashed accidentally or deliberately on Tuesday.
Serniabat said the car was carrying South African umpire Johan Cloete and Bangladeshi umpire Enamul Haque to their hotel after the match, which Pakistan won by 58 runs to sweep the series 3-0. Fans at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium were unhappy with Cloete declaring Bangladesh allrounder Farhad Reza out lbw for 21. Replays on the stadium's giant screen showed Reza got his bat to the ball.
