The two-match Test series between Pakistan and Bangladesh is likely to be held in August in Rawalpindi and Multan.

According to sources, Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore is undergoing upgrades in preparation for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, which will take some time to complete.

Following the work in Lahore, the National Bank Stadium in Karachi will also be upgraded, posing potential challenges for the PCB in organizing Test matches there.

Consequently, Multan and Rawalpindi stadiums are being considered as alternative venues. Ongoing discussions between the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) are in progress on finalizing the venues and dates, with an official schedule expected to be agreed upon in the coming days.
