Bangladesh Men’s Cricket Team FTP For 2024

Bottom Line

Bangladesh will be the first full-member team to cross 150 international match benchmarks as per the ICC’s FTP schedule for the 2023-2027 cycle. Despite their poor performance in the one-day format, Bangladesh will play 59 ODIs, the highest by any team.

It will be a challenging year for the national team as they will not have too many breaks, going on tours regularly within a short time. So players may feel more stressed out, mentally and physically.

It is expected that BCB will handle the players with much caution. The workload of the current players should be managed carefully to restrain them from getting mental fatigue.

The risk of injuries is also a crucial factor when playing too many matches in a short time, and for that, BCB can give opportunities to younger players and give rest to the players in between. It will be exciting to see how the Bangladesh Cricket Team plays in 2024, with the current team having more younger players and how they perform with the big players in their home turf.
