The England cricket team toured Bangladesh in March 2023 to play three One Day International (ODI) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1] The ODI series formed part of the inaugural 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[2] [3] It was the first bilateral T20I series between the two teams,[4] and England's first tour of Bangladesh since 2016.[5]

Originally, the tour was scheduled to take place in September and October 2021,[6] [7] with the T20I matches having been used as preparation for the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.[8] [9] However, in August 2021, the tour was postponed due to fixture congestion and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[10] [11] [12]

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirmed that they were in talks with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to reschedule the matches before the cut-off time of the Super League.[13] [14] On 3 August 2021, the ECB confirmed that the tour had been re-arranged for March 2023.[15] On 27 December 2022, both BCB and ECB confirmed the fixtures of the tour.[16] [17] However, later in January 2023, the tour's practice matches were cancelled by the ECB due to non-availability of several players and a busy international schedule.[18]

England won the ODI series with 2–1 margin, ending Bangladesh's 7 years unbeaten run in ODI series at home since 2016.[19]

Bangladesh won the first T20I match of the series, which was their first win against England and their 50th win in T20Is.[20] They also defeated England in the rest two games to grasp the series 3–0.[21]

Squads

On 16 February 2023, Tom Abell was ruled out of England's squad with a side strain.[26] On 25 February 2023, ECB announced Will Jacks as Abell's replacement in England's ODI squad.[27] However, on 5 March 2023, Jacks was ruled out of last ODI and the T20I series due to a left thigh injury.[28] [29]

On 2 March 2023, Shamim Hossain was added to Bangladesh's ODI squad.[30]
