No day-night games in Bangladesh's T20 series against Pakistan

Bangladesh's T20 matches in the Pakistan series will not be held under floodlight as presumed. All of the three games will start at 3:00pm Bangladesh time, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) revealed on Tuesday.

Although PCB had initially wanted to hold day-night games, the change of time will be welcomed by the Bangladesh tent.

At night the temparature at Lahore goes down to as low as 10 degree celsius, which feel like 6-7 degrees. Now that the games will be held during the day, the Tigers won't need to think about the condition in the evening.

Bangladesh T20 captain Mahmudullah said, "The batsmen need to play their role. The wicket is supposed to favour the batsmen."

The Tigers will leave Dhaka for Lahore on Wednesday, in a chartered flight that takes off at 10:30pm.

The games will be played on 24, 25 and 27 January.
