This comes as the BCCI looks to postpone the scheduled T20I series against Afghanistan, originally set to start on September 13, to clear a window for the proposed matches in Bangladesh. The BCB has made venues available starting from September 1 and is considering different match formats, aiming to mend relations shaped by previous tensions.
