Tri-nation series to be hosted by Bangladesh

IT is nice to know that Bangladesh hosts a tri-nation series involving Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka in January 2018. It will be its first tri-nation series since January 2010. Obviously the fans are looking forward to it with great enthusiasm and excitement.

After the tri-series, Bangladesh will play Sri Lanka in two Tests. It will be interesting to see how Bangladesh plays Sri Lanka after coach Haturasinghe left prematurely and took over as coach of his native country Sri Lanka. It will be Haturasinghe's first venture as the immediate past coach of Bangladesh and present coach of Sri Lanka.

I hope the Tigers will play well in both the tri-nation series and as well as the Test matches that follow. The tri-nation series will be held from January 15 with the opening encounter between hosts Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. All the matches of the tournament will be played under flood lights in Dhaka. We wish best of luck to Bangladesh.
