Bangladesh skipper Mahmudullah said on Monday that he was satisfied with the security and added that he is looking forward to play the in the upcoming Test series against Pakistan scheduled in February and March.
The T20I series completes the first leg of Bangladesh's three-phase tour of Pakistan. Bangladesh will return for the first Test which begins on February 7 while the final leg, which includes a one-off ODI and the second Test, starts in April.
This was Bangladesh's first tour to Pakistan in 12 years, which was finalised after quite a lot of haggling over security concerns, having last played a five-match one-day series and an Asia Cup - both in 2008. After completing the first phase of T20Is, Bangladesh will return home, returning to Pakistan to play the first of two Tests in Rawalpindi, starting on February 7. In their final instalment of the tour to the country, Bangladesh will play the lone ODI on April 3 and the second and final Test, starting on April 5 in Karachi.
‘’The thing is that, I have been here before. Lahore has been a wonderful city, the hospitality, the arrangements have always been up to the mark. And this time we experienced a great city and the arrangement good and hopefully we are going to come back again in the Test matches,’’ he said.
