Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Zaka Ashraf said the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) had announced the team’s intention to tour Pakistan next month for a short two-match series.
“We were in constant touch with the BCB officials and they have conveyed to us that the tour is confirmed,” Ashraf said.
“They have also got approval from their board members and we are in touch for the schedule.”
Ashraf said the best security arrangements will be put in place for the Bangladesh team.
“We will soon coordinate with the provincial governments and put in place the best arrangements for the tour and I am pretty confident that the tour will take place in the best possible manner and pave (the) way for more teams to come,” said Ashraf.
Bangladesh earlier this week said they will play a Twenty20 and a one-day match on January 12 and 13 respectively, both in Lahore.
The team had agreed to tour Pakistan in April this year but the event was blocked by the Dhaka high court.
