The Pakistan cricket team toured Bangladesh in July 2025 to play against the Bangladesh cricket team. ^[1] The tour consisted of three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches. ^[2] The series served as preparation for both teams ahead of the 2025 Asia Cup and the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup. ^[3] The matches were played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka. ^[4] In March 2025, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced the schedule of the series. ^[5]

Originally, the tour was scheduled as a three ODIs under the Future Tours Programme (FTP). However, with the ICC Men's T20 World Cup scheduled in 2026, both the boards mutually agreed with a three-match T20I series. ^[6]

Bangladesh won the series by 2-1 margin, achieving their first T20I series win over Pakistan. ^[7]
