• It will be the first official youth series held in Pakistan for 15 years.

Bangladesh’s U19 cricket team has been confirmed to tour Pakistan, meaning that Pakistan’s U19 cricket squad will play its first official international series at home in 15 years.

Although the tour dates have not yet been made public, it is anticipated that they will occur next month.

The Bangladesh U19 squad will visit Pakistan to play one four-day game and five limited-over games, all of which will take place in Faisalabad, according to a representative of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

This week’s final announcement is anticipated to be announced later on.

In Pakistan, this will be the first official youth series to be held in 15 years.

When Bangladesh visited Pakistan in 2007 and played in Karachi, Pakistan last held an official youth series. Ahmed Shahzad, Shan Masood, Umar Amin, Imad Wasim, and Umar Akmal were the Men in Green representatives in that series.

Aspiring international players from Bangladesh included Tamim Iqbal, Rubel Hossain, Dolar Mohammad, and Mohammad Mithun.

The U19 Afghan squad did visit Pakistan in 2014, however the matches were not recognised as Youth ODIs. Rashid Khan, Hazratullah Zazai, Naveen ul Haq, and Karim Jannat were some of the Afghan team’s players who eventually went on to represent their nation.

According to experts, the players of the current season of the Pakistan Junior League (PJL) will also have the chance to represent Pakistan during the U19 series against Bangladesh.
