Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), which has been finding excuses not to travel to Pakistan, claimed that this Middle East escalation has prompted them to be cautious.

BCB President Nazmul Hasan claimed:

We are clear cut, but let’s see how they react. As far as security is concerned, T20 is a better option. They [PCB] should be happy that we still want to go to play T20s. We just wanted to reschedule of the Tests, not saying we won’t tour. This is the best thing we can offer to Pakistan.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) spokesperson said that the board will respond once it has received an official letter from BCB. Furthermore, he maintained the position that PCB will not accept any proposal which does not include the two Test matches as scheduled.
