India tour of bangladesh: There is currently suspense on the India vs Bangladesh cricket series to be held in August. India has to play 3 ODIs and 3 T20 International matches against Bangladesh from August 17, but due to the current political situation between the two countries, doubt remains over the visit. Meanwhile, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has made a big statement and has tried to clear the situation on this whole matter.

Aminul Islam said, “We have a good conversation with BCCI. It is not necessary that this series is in August-September, if the government does not get approval now, we will organize this series at some other time in future.” Aminul said this after the 19th meeting of the board held at Sher-e-Bangla Stadium on 30 June.
