BCCI to Seek Indian Government Approval for Proposed Bangladesh White-Ball Series
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) plans to seek approval from the Indian government for a proposed six-match white-ball cricket series in Bangladesh, scheduled between August 29 and September 15. The series, including three ODIs and three T20Is, was postponed earlier due to political tensions and controversies involving both cricket boards. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) remains in contact with the BCCI, and recent diplomatic improvements have renewed hopes for the tour, though final clearance from India is still pending.
