The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Tuesday confirmed that Bangladesh will proceed with the limited-overs tour, despite initial uncertainties due to heightened cross-border tensions with India earlier this month. Originally scheduled to feature five T20Is starting May 25, the tour has now been trimmed to a three-match series, with dates yet to be finalised.

The series had come under threat following a four-day military standoff between India and Pakistan, marking one of the most serious escalations in decades. A ceasefire was later brokered, but the impact was felt across both nations, including in their domestic cricketing calendars.
