BCB announces tentative schedule for T20I series against Pakistan

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has drafted the initial schedule for the T20I series and shared it with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

The T20I series will begin on July 20, with the second and third matches scheduled for July 22 and 24, respectively.

All three matches are set to be hosted at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka.

There, they will face the Caribbean side in a three-match T20I series beginning on July 31 in the United States. This will be followed by a One Day International (ODI) series against the West Indies as well.

Pakistan defeated Bangladesh in the third and final T20I at Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday, completing a 3-0 series sweep.
