However, the BCCI and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) have reached a mutual decision to reschedule the tour. The matches will now be played in September 2026.
"With India’s scheduled tour of Bangladesh postponed, discussions are underway about the possibility of a limited overs series between Sri Lanka and India in mid-August," the report read.
