The chairman of USA Cricket, Venu Pisike, stated that these matches are essential for strengthening team dynamics and honing tactics.
“Ahead of the important Men’s T20 World Cup, these games will be vital for our team to get their working combinations, build team cohesion, and fine-tune strategies. I’d also like to thank ICC, Cricket Canada and the Bangladesh Cricket Board who offered their full support in scheduling of the matches.”

The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s chief executive, Nizam Uddin Chowdhury, on the other hand, referred to this tour as a historic moment for cricket.
“The Bangladesh Team’s upcoming tour of the USA marks a historic occasion in the realm of cricket. This T20I series signifies a momentous opportunity for the cricketers of both nations to showcase their talent and passion for the sport.
