After a successful ODI series for Bangladesh, the caravan now moves to T20Is. On Wednesday, June 17, the two teams will lock horns at the Chattogram Stadium for the 1st of the three-match T20I series.

Bangladesh are fresh off a historic series win over Australia, but T20Is are a different gravy. For Australia, Mitchell Marsh returns to lead the side after missing out on the ODIs. However, they too have dealt a couple of blows.

The Men in Yellow will be without Travis Head and Cameron Green. Further, Nikhil Choudhary has been added to the T20I squad, making him the first male Indian origin cricketer to play for Australia in 60 years.

For Bangladesh, Litton Das will lead the side, while Tawhid Hridoy will serve as his deputy. Notably, the Tigers will look to replicate their ODI performance in the shortest format. Hence, this article will shed light on the Chattogram pitch+ weather report.
