According to a statement made by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is currently being sought for discussions by the BCB with regards to Pakistan’s planned white ball tour of the national team within the next week. The BCB has been unequivocal that whatever they choose will be guided by what brings the highest utility to Bangladesh cricket and its coterie.
BCB’s Statement
“The BCB wishes to reiterate that the safety and security of its players and support staff remain the Board’s highest priority,” an official statement on Saturday said. “All decisions concerning the tour will be made with careful consideration of the current situation in Pakistan, ensuring they align with the best interests of the team and Bangladesh cricket.”

As for the players protection, BCB stated that no decision will be made until detailed inspections of the current security situation are completed. Rishad Hossain and Nahid Rana – two players of Bangladesh who just ended their PSL 2025 participation- arrived in Dhaka the last Friday. It is required that they be here with the national team tomorrow that is headed to Dubai. With respect to future Bangladesh games, it is likely that PSL cannot allow the pair return to those games.
