The BiH national team was looking for options to come to Lithuania. However, logistics between the countries on commercial flights is difficult.

According to the Lithuanian Basketball Federation, this morning General Secretary Mindaugas Balciunas spoke over the phone with the head of the Bosnia and Herzegovina Basketball Federation Amer Colan.

"If we find it, we are coming", said Colan, referring to the charter plane.

Via the latest information, Bosnians are coming to the Baltic country.

"I spoke to the federation representatives, who informed me that Bosnia and Herzegovina will have a flight tomorrow (Sunday) at 9:00 from Sarajevo," said Mindaugas Balciunas.

The game between Lithuania and Bosnia and Herzegovina is scheduled for this Sunday, 18:30 CET in Vilnius.

Bosnia and Herzegovina's national team decided not to travel to Lithuania for the second match of the FIBA World Cup Qualifiers due to the declaration of a state of emergency by the Lithuanian government.

The first game between the national teams finished with Lituania's nail-biting victory (78-77).
