Lahore, June 25

The Pakistan men’s cricket team is set to travel to Bangladesh next month for a three-match T20I series, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed on Wednesday.

The series marks another chapter in the two sides' growing T20 rivalry and will be hosted entirely at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka, with all matches scheduled to begin at 6 PM local time.

"Pakistan men’s team will travel to Bangladesh next month to take part in a three-match bilateral T20I series, the Bangladesh Cricket Board confirmed today," PCB said in a statement.

Pakistan will arrive in Dhaka on July 16, giving them a few days to prepare before the series kicks off on Sunday, July 20 with the first T20I.

The remaining two games will be played on July 22 (Tuesday) and July 24 (Thursday), respectively — all at the same venue under lights.

This will be the first meeting between the two sides since their last T20I clash in Lahore, where Pakistan completed a 3-0 clean sweep against the visitors.

Exciting series ahead! Bangladesh at home is always a tough opponent, but Pakistan's recent form looks strong. Hope we get to see some close contests. The timing is perfect for Indian viewers too - 6 PM in Dhaka means 5:30 PM IST. Perfect evening cricket! 🏏

Interesting to see Pakistan touring Bangladesh again. Their last series was one-sided, but Bangladesh at home can surprise anyone. Shakib's experience vs Pakistan's young guns will be the key battle. Hope the matches live up to expectations!

As a cricket lover, I enjoy watching these Asian rivalries. But honestly, I wish India would also play more bilateral series with Bangladesh. Their home crowd creates such an electric atmosphere! Maybe after the T20 World Cup?

The Sher-e-Bangla stadium is such a great venue! Remember how India had that thrilling last-ball finish there last year? 😅 Hope this series gives us similar excitement. Bangladesh needs to step up their game though - their batting has been inconsistent lately.

Good preparation for both teams before bigger tournaments. But I'm more interested in seeing if Bangladesh can break their losing streak against Pakistan. Their fans deserve some home cheer after recent performances.

While the cricket will be exciting, I hope the focus remains on sportsmanship. The last few Pakistan-Bangladesh series have had some unnecessary controversies. Let the bat and ball do the talking this time!
