India are set to tour Bangladesh for a white-ball series in August-September 2026, with the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirming the rescheduled dates while unveiling a packed home international calendar for the season.
Bangladesh will host India for three ODIs and three T20Is, with the Indian team scheduled to arrive on August 28. The white-ball tour, which was originally slated to take place from August 17 to 31, 2025, has been deferred by a year. As per the revised itinerary, the ODI series will be played on September 1, 3 and 6, followed by the T20Is on September 9, 12 and 13. The Indian team will return home after the conclusion of the T20I series.
“The confirmed itinerary ensures a season full of international cricket in Bangladesh, providing supporters across the country the opportunity to watch top-level cricket at home. Details of match venues will be announced in due course,” said the BCB in its statement on Friday. India’s tour of Bangladesh was originally supposed to take place in August 2025, but was moved to September 2026 due to political unrest in the country. As per BCB’s itinerary, India is scheduled to arrive in Bangladesh on August 28.
“The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have mutually agreed to defer the white-ball series, three ODIs and three Twenty20 Internationals, between Bangladesh and India in August 2025 to September 2026,” the BCCI had informed in a statement last July.
“This decision has been reached following discussions between the two Boards, taking into account the international cricketing commitments and scheduling convenience of both teams.” “The BCB looks forward to welcoming India in September 2026 for this eagerly anticipated series. Revised dates and fixtures for the tour will be announced in due course,” it added.
The ODI series will begin on September 1 with the first match, followed by the second game on September 3 and the third clash on September 6. The T20I series will commence on September 9, with the second match scheduled for September 12 and the finale game on September 13, following which the Indian team will return home.
