Bangladesh set to play two T20Is against UAE ahead of Pakistan tour
Ahead of their highly anticipated five-match T20I series, Bangladesh will be playing two T20Is against UAE, to be held in Sharjah on May 17 and May 19. This is the second bilateral series between both sides in the last three years. They last met in a two-match series in 2022, which Bangladesh clinched 2-0.
"In the last three years, we have hosted ICC Full Members New Zealand, West Indies and Afghanistan while Bangladesh's T20I series tour is their second bilateral tour of the UAE in three years," Emirates Cricket Board COO Subhan Ahmad said.
"The two-match Bangladesh series will provide an ideal preparation opportunity for UAE ahead of this year's T20 Asia Cup."

"We appreciate the initiative of the Emirates Cricket Board in arranging this T20I series. These matches will serve as an important part of our team's preparations ahead of a packed international calendar, including the upcoming Asia Cup," BCB CEO Nizam Uddin Chowdhury said.
"We are confident that these two games will further strengthen the cricketing ties between the BCB and ECB and provide quality entertainment to the cricket fans."
