The Bangladesh Cricket Board Chief Executive officer Nizamuddin Chowdhury revealed today that the Pakistan Cricket team will visit Bangladesh just after the T20 World Cup.
This will be Pakistan’s first visit to Bangladesh after 6 years as they visited Bangaladesh back in 2015 under Azhar Ali. Now it’s time for Pakistan to visits the tigers again.
Pakistan Vs Bangladesh 2021
When will Pakistan Leave for Bangladesh?
Pakistan men’s cricket team will leave for Dhaka on November 15, 2021. Yes, you guessed it right they will leave after the very next day of the T20 World Cup final. Both the teams will fly from the United Arab Emirates to Dhaka, Bangaladesh.
Discussion is still going on between both the cricket boards to settle down the things and finalize the format and other stuff.
How many matches will be played?
Most importantly 2 test matches will be played which will be part of World Test Championship 2023. The schedule is then of 3 T20i matches but it is hoped that these T20i matches might get replaced by One Day Internationals.
The reason to replace these T20is with ODIs is that all the teams have already played a huge number of t20i matches before the world cup same goes for Pakistan and Bangladesh.
So, this might result in some ODI matches that will also be a part of the ICC Superleague.

For now, Pakistan is at number 3rd in the World test championship table after India and England, While West indies are at 4th. Bangladesh is yet to play their matches in WTC.
