Bangladesh Cricket Team Gears Up for Action-Packed Test Season in 2024

Get ready for an action-packed year as the Bangladesh men's cricket team embarks on their busiest Test schedule ever in 2024. The Tigers are slated to participate in a total of 14 red-ball matches over the next 12 months, surpassing their previous high of 10 Tests in 2022

Get ready for an action-packed year as the Bangladesh men’s cricket team embarks on their busiest Test schedule ever in 2024. The Tigers are slated to participate in a total of 14 red-ball matches over the next 12 months, surpassing their previous high of 10 Tests in 2022. Last year saw a comparatively lighter load with only four red-ball games, resulting in an impressive three victories and one defeat.

While the team’s focus on Test cricket intensifies, the Twenty20 arena is also set to witness the prowess of the Tigers. With 17 T20 matches lined up in bilateral series and the ICC Twenty20 World Cup on the horizon, Bangladesh’s T20 squad is gearing up for an exciting year of fierce competition.

However, the ODI landscape seems to have taken a backseat in 2024, with only nine 50-over games on the calendar, a significant drop from the 32 ODIs played in 2023.

Here’s a glimpse of the Bangladesh cricket team’s fixture highlights for 2024:

– March: Bangladesh vs. Sri Lanka – 2 Tests, 3 ODIs, 3 T20s (Home)

– April: Bangladesh vs. Zimbabwe – 2 Tests, 5 T20s (Home)

– June: ICC T20 World Cup – The USA and the West Indies

– July: Afghanistan vs. Bangladesh – 2 Tests, 3 ODIs, 3 T20s (Away)

– August-September: Pakistan vs. Bangladesh – 2 Tests (Away)

– September-October: India vs. Bangladesh – 2 Tests, 3 T20s (Away)

– October-November: Bangladesh vs. South Africa – 2 Tests (Home)

– November-December: West Indies vs. Bangladesh – 2 Tests, 3 ODIs, 3 T20s (Away)

With a challenging and diverse lineup, the Bangladesh cricket team is poised for an exhilarating journey in the cricketing landscape throughout 2024.
