The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) on Saturday announced the schedule for the five-match ODI series between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe to be played in Dhaka and Chittagong, says a BCB press release.

Zimbabwe will arrive in Dhaka on Oct 21 and play two warm-up games on Oct 23 and 25 in the lead-up to the ODI series which begins on Oct 27.

The teams play their first three ODIs at the Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium and the final two in Chittagong before Zimbabwe fly home on Nov 6. All the fixtures are day games.
