The Australia tour of Bangladesh 2026 is one of the most historic white-ball assignments in recent memory.
Comprising 3 ODIs and 3 T20Is from June 9 to June 21, this is Australia’s first ODI tour to Bangladesh in 15 years, their last 50-over visit came in 2011.
Mitchell Marsh leads a strong Australian side across both formats, while Bangladesh will lean on spin-friendly home conditions and their formidable record in T20 cricket against the Aussies to pose a serious challenge.
