Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Tamim Iqbal says he views Bangladesh as an “extremely safe country” and remains hopeful about hosting India for a tour in 2026. Speaking on the prospect of India returning to Bangladesh, he notes that India last played in Bangladesh in 2022, when the visitors won a two-match Test series 2-0. Iqbal says he is actively working to bring India to Bangladesh but acknowledges that some factors are outside the BCB’s control. Across the reports, the focus remains on the board’s efforts to arrange the upcoming tour and on addressing concerns that may affect international scheduling. The coverage does not specify what particular issues are beyond his control, nor does it provide confirmation of dates, venues, or the format of the proposed 2026 visit. The statements therefore reflect the BCB’s position and outlook rather than a finalized agreement.
