The Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram will stage the first Test from November 26. Pakistan won their only match in Bangladesh when they toured the national six years ago. After drawing a game in Khulna, the visitors won in Mirpur by 328 runs.

The tour will end in Dhaka, with the second Test set to take place at the venue. Pakistan are second in the 2021-23 cycle of the World Test Championship with one win in two matches while Bangladesh are yet to kickstart their campaign.

The former enjoys a dominant record over the Tigers in the T20s and Tests, winning 10 out of 11 Tests and 10 from 12 T20s. The two sides locked horns in a bilateral series last year when Bangladesh visited Pakistan.

The visitors lost the T20 and Test series convincingly. However, Bangladesh are a formidable outfit at home, which is demonstrated by their twin T20 series triumphs against Australia and New Zealand. They will be itching to beat Babar Azam and his men.
