South Africa's tour of Bangladesh |
International cricket will be played in July and August for the first time in Bangladesh, after the BCB announced that South Africa will play two T20s, three ODIs and two Tests in the country during the monsoon season. In addition, the BCB's media committee chairman Jalal Yunus said that Pakistan will play three ODIs, two Tests and a T20 in April, while India and Australia will also tour Bangladesh in 2015.
South Africa will arrive on June 30 and play a practice T20 game in Fatullah on July 3. This will be followed by the T20 matches in Mirpur on July 5 and 7. The ODI series will begin on July 10, the third of which will be played in Chittagong. The first Test will also be held in Chittagong, from July 21, while the second Test will be held in Mirpur from July 30 to August 3.
"This tour was set four or five years ago in the FTP," Nizamuddin Chowdhury, the BCB CEO, said.
"We tried to change the schedule but we had to match with South Africa."
