THE Zimbabwe  senior men’s national cricket team will tour Bangladesh for a five-match T20I series in May as part of Bangladesh’s preparation for the forthcoming ICC T20 World Cup in the West Indies and United States. 

The first three T20Is will be played in Chattogram starting on May 3, with the last two being held in Dhaka. 

The  two Tests that the Chevrons and Tigers were scheduled to play this year  have been postponed to next year, and will be the first Test series between the two nations since 2018. Zimbabwe will be looking to rebuild after missing out on qualification for the 2024 T20 World Cup. 

Bangladesh holds a 13-7 win-loss ratio against Zimbabwe in the shortest format. The  last time the two teams played  against each other was a three-match bilateral T20I series in July 2022 in Harare won by the Chevrons 2-1.
