Pakistan vs Bangladesh Test Series 2024
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has made changes in the venue of the second match of the two-Test home series against Bangladesh. Bangladesh has to play a series of 2 Test matches on its Pakistani tour.
The first match is to be played in Rawalpindi from August 21. While the second match was to be played from August 30 at the National Stadium in Karachi without the presence of spectators.
