The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has revised its Future Tours Programme (FTP) for 2023-2025 schedule for the next two seasons. According to PCB's schedule released today [Tuesday], the Bangladesh team's tour of Pakistan will happen in August 2024 as the Tigers will visit Pakistan to play two Tests.

After that, PCB has kept Bangladesh team in Pakistan tour schedule in May 2025. Bangladesh will then trip to Pakistan to play a three-match ODI and T20 series.

The most notable change is that Pakistan will play 10 additional T20Is against New Zealand next year.

These matches will be played in January 2024, ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, which will be held in the West Indies and the United States in June 2024.

The two ICC World Test Championship fixtures against the West Indies, originally planned in Pakistan in February 2024, will now be held in January 2025.

Likewise, Pakistan’s tour to New Zealand for three ODIs and five T20Is, originally scheduled in January 2025, will now take place in April 2025.
