Pakistan U-19 cricket team set to tour Bangladesh from April 17 instead of 11 to play a four-day and five ODI matches against the winners of ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup. The tour has been delayed by six days due to the ongoing lockdown in Bangladesh.
The cricket boards of the two countries decided to reschedule the tour to ensure the tour takes place in a safe and secure environment (bio-secure bubble).
Pakistan U-19 and Bangladesh U-19 will play a four-day match in Sylhet from 23 April, followed by a series of five 50-over matches. The first three 50-over matches will be played in Sylhet followed by the last two matches in Dhaka.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has not yet announced the final 17-member squad.
