Tamim Iqbal says India-Bangladesh series still on as boards explore new window

Tamim Iqbal has confirmed that Bangladesh's tour of India remains scheduled despite the original August dates being deferred to September 2026. Both cricket boards continue to negotiate a mutually convenient window for the bilateral series.

The former Bangladesh captain stated that the postponement has not affected either side's commitment to complete the tour. The series was initially planned for last August before the delay was announced.

The rescheduled dates would place the tour during India's home season that already includes multiple international commitments across formats.
