Pakistan has agreed to reschedule its one-day international against Bangladesh next month to give the visitor more time to prepare for their second test match, which is a part of ICC World Test Championship.
The one-off ODI in Karachi was originally scheduled for April 3 and will now be played on April 1. The second test is scheduled for April 5-9.
“The PCB is always happy to facilitate wherever it can and will be delighted to host the Bangladesh men’s national team for additional days in Karachi,” said Zahir Khan, the Pakistan Cricket Board’s director of international cricket.
