The Pakistan men’s cricket team has officially begun its journey to Bangladesh for the upcoming T20I series, with players travelling in two separate groups due to logistical reasons.

According to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the first group left early Tuesday morning from Lahore, while the second group is scheduled to fly out later in the evening. Both groups are expected to arrive in Dhaka by late Wednesday, giving the full squad at least two days to train together before the series kicks off.

The division travel plan was said to have been caused by the fact that the flights were available and the players' responsibilities, as some of them have already come back to finish various international or domestic engagements.

Pakistan will host three T20Is against Bangladesh, in their lead-up to the upcoming Champions Trophy, as well as momentum, ahead of the T20 World Cup. July 19 is likely to host the first match of the series.

The touring squad includes senior players like Babar Azam, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and rising stars such as Hassan Nawaz and Abrar Ahmed. Team management, including head coach Gary Kirsten, is also accompanying the players, and a short training camp will be held once the full squad assembles in Dhaka.

 that all players cleared fitness tests and are travelling without injury concerns. “The squad is fully fit and looking forward to a strong performance in Bangladesh,” he said.

This short but crucial series could also influence final squad decisions for Pakistan’s next international assignments, making every game important for players hoping to cement their spots.
