Cricket powerhouse India are all set to tour Bangladesh in June this year. The two-time ICC World Cup champions will reach Dhaka on June 7 and during their 20-day stay, the tourists will play one Test and three ODIs.
The lone Test will be played from June 10-14 in Fatullah’s Khan Shaheb Osman Ali Stadium. The three one-day internationals will be played in Mirpur’s Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on June 18, 21 and 24 respectively.
The last time India visited Bangladesh was back in June last year. The short three-ODI series, however, disappointed the cricket lovers of Bangladesh as the Board of Control for Cricket in India sent a second-string side with Suresh Raina as the captain. This time though, India will send a full-strength side. It was learnt that the Tigers’ heroic performances in the 2015 ICC World Cup forced the BCCI to treat the series seriously.
The last time Bangladesh played India, home or away, in the white outfit was back in 2010.
