Windies to visit in November

Sports Reporter

West Indies will arrive in Dhaka on November 15 this year to play two Tests, three ODIs and three Twenty20 Internationals against the Tigers in Chittagong, Mirpur and Sylhet.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced the itinerary for the tour yesterday. This will be the first full tour of the West Indies to Bangladesh since 2012.

West Indies will start their fourth full series in Bangladesh with a two-day practice match against BCB XI at the MA Aziz Stadium in Chittagong. They will stay in the port city for the first Test starting from November 22 at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.

In the last visit in 2012, West Indies won the Test series 2-0 but lost the five-match ODI series by a 3-2 margin. During their first visit in 2002, West Indies won the Test series 2-0 and ODI series 2-0 as the first ODI was abandoned due to rain. On their second visit in 2011, West Indies won the Test series 1-0 after the rain-interrupted first Test was drawn and ODI series 2-1, with the Tigers getting a consolation win in the third match.
