The preparations for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 have begun. Teams have started playing bilateral series to prepare for the showpiece event, starting from June 2. The United States of America (USA) are all set to host Bangladesh for a T20I series.
The three-match T20I series will begin on Tuesday, May 21. All three games will be played at the Prairie View Cricket Complex in Houston. The series provides a great chance for the players to adapt to the conditions before the global event.

Monank Patel will be leading the side against Bangladesh and they will be hoping to start the series on a winning note.
