Bangladesh men’s and women’s national cricket teams are gearing up for an action-packed year, with a packed international calendar featuring the Champions Trophy in February, alongside several bilateral series at home and abroad.

The Bangladesh men’s team will dive into international action shortly after the conclusion of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), the nation’s premier franchise-based cricket league. The marquee event, the Champions Trophy, also dubbed the "Mini World Cup," will take place from February 19 to March 9 in Pakistan, with India playing their matches in Dubai due to the ICC Hybrid Model.

Bangladesh has been placed in Group A alongside India, Pakistan, and New Zealand. Fixtures are as follows:

February 20: Bangladesh vs India in Dubai

In March, Bangladesh will host Zimbabwe for a three-match ODI and T20 series. This will be followed by a tour to Pakistan in May for another three-match ODI and T20 series.

The action continues in June, with a full-fledged tour to Sri Lanka, including two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20s.

Later in the year, Bangladesh will host several high-profile series:

August: Three ODIs and three T20s against India.

October: Three ODIs and three T20s against West Indies.

November: A comprehensive series against Ireland, featuring two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20s.

The Bangladesh Women’s Cricket Team also faces a busy calendar, starting with a tour to the West Indies in January-February 2025, where they will play three ODIs and three T20s.

The team aims to qualify for the Women’s One-Day World Cup, slated for September-October. Their year will conclude with a tour of India in December, featuring three ODIs and three T20s.
