Mirpur, June 25

Bangladesh Cricket Team on Wednesday announced the schedule for the three-match T20I series against Pakistan which will kickstart from July 20 at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, as per the ICC official website.

The two nations, who previously contested in as many T20Is in Pakistan earlier this month, will be vying against each other in the shortest format again.

Having been at the receiving end of a series sweep in Pakistan, Bangladesh will be looking to turn the tide in the upcoming contest.

All three games scheduled in July will be played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.

The tourists had drawn the Test series opener in Galle and are featuring in the second Test in Colombo. The two-match series marked the beginning of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship cycle.

Interesting series! Bangladesh really needs to step up their game after that whitewash in Pakistan. Their batting lineup looks shaky - hope they can find some form before the T20 World Cup. Best of luck to both teams! 🇧🇩🇵🇰

As an Indian cricket fan, I enjoy watching our neighbors play competitive cricket. Bangladesh at home is always a tough opponent. Hope they give Pakistan a good fight this time! The Mirpur stadium usually produces exciting matches.

Bangladesh's cricket team has improved so much over the years! Remember when they used to be minnows? Now they're giving tough competition to all teams. Hope they can win at least one match this series 🤞

Good to see more cricket happening between Asian nations. But honestly, the schedule is too packed - Bangladesh is already playing in Sri Lanka and now immediately this series? Players need proper rest to avoid injuries.

Exciting matches ahead! I'll be watching mainly to see how Pakistan's young players perform. Their fast bowling attack is world-class. Bangladesh should focus on their fielding - they dropped too many catches in the last series 😅
