THE West Indies High Performance team will arrive in Dhaka on September 12 for a three-week tour, during which they will take on Bangladesh A and the BCB National Cricket Academy sides. This is part of an exchange programme between the Bangladesh Cricket Board and the West Indies Cricket Board, after Bangladesh A toured West Indies in 2011.
The West Indies team will be made up of players from the Sagicor High Performance Centre (SHPC) in Barbados.
The tour will begin with a four-day match against the Academy in Khulna's Sheikh Abu Naser Stadium, from September 16 to 19. The second - and final - four-day game is against Bangladesh A from September 22 to 25 at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
The one-day series, against Bangladesh A, will include three matches in Mirpur, and will be played between September 28 and October 2. These will be followed by two Twenty20s, on October 4 and 5 in Mirpur. However, these matches would not be classified as either First-class or List A.
For Bangladesh A, the series will follow the invitational tournament in India; they are set to play the Shafi Darashah Invitational between July 27 and August 14 in Bangalore and Mysore. (Cricinfo)
