Is GMHBA Ground Batting Or Bowling Pitch?
Despite the fact that the stadium’s statistics claim otherwise, it is said to be simple to bat on during T20 matches in Dhaka. Despite this, as the game progresses, the pitch appears to provide assistance to spinners. Spinners are actually prevalent in the record of finest bowling performances in Dhaka, with at least five spinners represented.

History
The stadium, which is located in Kushtia, was built for football in the late 1980s and first hosted matches at the Asian Club Championship in 1987. In 2004, the Bangladesh Cricket Board acquired and replaced the Bangabandhu National Stadium as the men’s and women’s national teams’ home with help from Japanese construction firm Obayashi Corporation.
The stadium, which reopened in 2011, has hosted several international matches since its completion. The first international game at the refurbished ground took place in December 2006, and the venue has subsequently hosted matches of the 2011 World Cup, 2012 Asia Cup, 2014 Women’s World Twenty20 Championship as well as most BPL games (BPL).
