Overview

  • The three-match series will take place at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium on May 28, 30 and June 1.
  • The technical staff responsible for DRS operations did not return after the Pakistan Super League resumed, ruling out review technology.
  • The Pakistan Cricket Board cited cost inefficiency and limited broadcaster interest in opting against DRS for the home series.
  • Originally scheduled as a five-match contest, the series was cut to three games following delays in the PSL calendar.
  • Bangladesh will field a depleted squad under Liton Das after Mustafizur Rehman was ruled out with an IPL thumb injury and others opted out over security concerns.
