On Saturday, the Bangladesh Cricket Board announced that Ireland will arrive on November 6 for a complete series featuring two Tests and three T20 Internationals.

The tour will kick off with a two-match Test series. The first Test will be held at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium starting November 11, followed by the second Test at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka from November 19 to November 23. During this match, Mushfiqur Rahim is expected to achieve his 100th Test cap.

After the Tests, the teams will head to Chattogram for a three-match T20I series starting on November 24. The first T20I will take place on November 27 at the Bir Shrestha Shaheed Flight Lieutenant Motiur Rahman Cricket Stadium, with the second and third matches set for November 29 and December 2.

In their last Test series in June, Bangladesh faced Sri Lanka and lost the two-match series 1-0. Currently, Bangladesh is leading a T20I series 2-0 against Afghanistan in the UAE.

Meanwhile, Ireland recently secured a 63-run victory against Zimbabwe in a Test match in February, yet they lost their last T20I series 2-0 to England in September.
