Bangladesh Cricket Team is all set to tour the USA for a three-match T20I series in May. This series will mark the first time the two teams will clash in the shortest format of the game. Also, the series serves as a chance to provide practice to the teams ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024.

The USA, set to co-host the World Cup along with West Indies will mark its first-ever appearance in the T20 extravaganza. As hosts automatically qualify for the ICC event, the USA will soon reap an advantage to mark their appearance, playing among well-known cricketing teams.

As for the USA, they will also lock horns with Canada in a five-match series, preparatory for the all-important T20 World Cup 2024. All five matches are set to be played at Prairie View Cricket Complex in Houston.
