UAE adds third T20I against Tigers to series
Tuesday, 20 May 2025
The United Arab Emirates will now host Bangladesh in an additional T20I match tomorrow (Wednesday) at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, the Emirates Cricket Board confirmed on Monday, reports UNB.
The third T20I has been added following discussions between the Emirates Cricket Board and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
It will begin at 7:00pm local time, just like the second match of the series scheduled for Monday, also at Sharjah.
Originally, the two teams were set to play a two-match series, but the addition of a third match
offers both sides more game time ahead of their
future international commitments.
Bangladesh won
the opening match of the series by 27 runs on Friday, thanks to a stunning century by Parvez Hossain Emon.
Bangladesh are leading the series 1-0 following their 27-run victory in the
first match, thanks to a record-breaking century of opener Parvez Hossain
Emon.
The two teams will play in the second T20 International tonight, beginning
from 9pm (Bangladesh time).
Broadcast of the series will be available globally,
including T-Sports in Bangladesh, Fancode in India, Cricbuzz across
MENA, Geo Super in Pakistan, Willow TV in the US and Canada, and Sportseye/YouTube.
