Bangladesh's upcoming tour to Pakistan is also likely to be affected by the recent surge of violence in the nation. The two-match Test series scheduled to start on August 21 is now uncertain due to the latest developments in Bangladesh.
The Pakistan National Cricket Team and the Bangla Tigers will play a Test series starting on August 21 in Rawalpindi, followed by the second match in Karachi from August 30.
Both games will be part of the ICC Test Championship, crucial for both teams.
