Bangladesh arranges tour to New Zealand

Bangladesh will tour New Zealand in December and January for two Tests and three one-day internationals, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has said.

"New Zealand have agreed to play against us after seeing our performances in the World Cup," Mahbub Anam, the BCB general secretary, told Reuters. "In return New Zealand will visit Bangladesh in October next year."

Anan also said that Sri Lanka confirmed three Tests against Bangladesh at home in June.

Both series will be in addition to the ICC's Future Tours Programme.
