15 September 2021, 10:58 am
Pakistan will visit Bangladesh in November-December this year for three T20 internationals and two Test matches of the ICC World Test Championship.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirmed the matter on Tuesday.
The Pakistan team is returning to Bangladesh for the first time since the ACC Asia Cup T20 in 2016.
The visitors will start the tour with the T20 series with all matches taking place at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka.
The first T20 will be held on November 19, while the rest of the two matches are slated for November 20 and 22.
The first Test will be held on November 26-30 at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram with the teams returning to Dhaka for the second Test, scheduled from December 4-8.
The Test series will mark the beginning of Bangladesh’s campaign in the ICC WTC cycle 2.
In Test cricket, Bangladesh still remains win-less against Pakistan as they played 11 matches, losing 10 and drawing one, courtesy of rain. In T20 cricket, however, Bangladesh won two after playing 12 matches.
