Bangladesh tour of Zimbabwe confirmed
Bangladesh’s tour of Zimbabwe will take place in late July after Zimbabwe Cricket finally confirmed dates with the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB). The five-ODI series will start with a match at Bulawayo on July 29 and conclude eight days later here at Harare.
Confirmation of the series had been delayed after the Zimbabwe board had asked for the matches to take place in September, but the BCB was adamant that the original timeline as specified by the ICC in its Future Tours Program should be adhered to.
Local reports indicate that the BCB is unhappy with the packed itinerary which sees five matches take place in eight days. It is thought that the BCB will continue to press for more rest time to be included between games.
What is also unclear is the situation regarding the Zimbabwe players who are contracted to play club cricket in England. Draft itinerary: July 29 1st ODI Bulawayo. July 30 2nd ODI Bulawayo. August 2 3rd ODI Harare. August 4 4th ODI Harare. August 5 5th ODI Harare.
