Dhaka [Bangladesh], September 18 (ANI): Bangladesh veteran wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim is likely to play his 100th Test at Dhaka's Shere Bangla National Stadium when his team faces Ireland in the second Test of the two-match series on November 19.
As per ESPNCricinfo, Cricket Ireland has agreed to play both Test matches, having initially wanted an ODI series, reportedly in place of a second Test.
Mushfiqur is a veteran of 98 Tests and will become the first Bangladesh cricketer to reach a century of Test matches played, having made his Test debut as an 18-year-old at Lord's in 2005 against England, becoming the second-youngest to play a Test at the venue after Indian cricketing icon Sachin Tendulkar.
Three ODIs will be played on October 18, 20 and 23, and the three T20Is on October 27 and 30 and November 1.
Bangladesh's 2025-26 calendar also features home series against Pakistan and New Zealand.
