The ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan has begun to affect international cricket schedules, including Bangladesh’s. The Tigers were initially scheduled to play back-to-back T20I series this month—first in the UAE and then in Pakistan. While the UAE tour is now confirmed, the Pakistan leg remains uncertain due to escalating security concerns.

According to the original itinerary, Bangladesh is set to play two T20Is against the UAE on May 17 and 19 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The series was designed as part of the team’s preparation for the more challenging five-match T20I series in Pakistan, slated for May 25 to June 3 across Faisalabad and Lahore.

India's planned tour of Bangladesh in August and their participation in the Asia Cup are now highly uncertain

However, recent developments in the region, including the indefinite postponement of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) following drone attacks near the Rawalpindi stadium, have cast serious doubts over the feasibility of the Pakistan tour. Notably, Bangladeshi cricketers Rishad Hossain and Nahid Rana had to be urgently evacuated from Pakistan during the escalation.


In an official media release, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirmed that the UAE series will go ahead as planned. The board, however, is taking a cautious and consultative approach regarding the Pakistan leg.

“The BCB is in active discussions with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regarding the proposed tour of Pakistan. The safety and security of players and support staff remain our highest priority. Any decision on the tour will be made after a thorough assessment of the current situation in Pakistan and in alignment with the best interests of the team and Bangladesh cricket,” the statement read.

The board further added, “As part of its commitment to regular international participation and preparation, the Bangladesh national cricket team will proceed with the pre-scheduled T20I series against the UAE, set to begin next week.”


Meanwhile, on the diplomatic front, U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that both India and Pakistan have agreed to a ceasefire. For that, there is a possibility that Bangladesh’s Pakistan tour might proceed as planned. Regardless, security will remain a top priority in all discussions.
