Bangladesh confirm Zimbabwe tour

Bangladesh have confirmed the dates for their tour of Zimbabwe. The 11-day trip will include four one-day internationals but no first-class matches, contrary to initial reports.

The series will act as vital preparation for both sides before the World Cup starts in March. Bangladesh's last action was the two-match series against Scotland in December, while Zimbabwe haven't played since their tour of Bangladesh following the Champions Trophy when they were beaten 5-0.

Bangladesh will arrive in Harare on February 1, returning to Dhaka on February 11, and all the matches will be played in the Zimbabwe capital.

Feb 1 - Arrive in Harare
Feb 4 - 1st ODI, Harare
Feb 6 - 2nd ODI, Harare
Feb 9 - 3rd ODI, Harare
Feb 10 - 4th ODI, Harare
