India vs Bangladesh ODI, T20I series: BCCI to approach Indian government before taking final call on participation

With the recent friction between India and Bangladesh cricket boards, BCCI is set to approach the Indian government before taking the final call on the tour

India vs Bangladesh ODI, T20I series: BCCI to approach Indian government before taking final call on participation

The BCCI plans to seek government approval before confirming India's participation in the proposed Bangladesh ODI and T20I series, set for September. The three-match tour, originally scheduled for 2025, is now undergoing uncertainty due to the political situation in Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has kept a window open for the series, with possible host cities including Dhaka and Chattogram.

However, the final decision rests with the Indian government, which is expected to provide guidance and clearance. The BCCI is anticipated to approach the government soon, potentially bringing clarity on the tour's fate. The postponement of the T20I series against Afghanistan, scheduled for New Delhi, would necessitate adjustments to India's cricket calendar.

This situation highlights the extent to which the fixture has moved away from cricket boards' control, with the government's stance being the decisive factor.
