The warm-up games for the ten participating sides in the 2023 ODI World Cup will be held between September 26 and October 3. Here are the practice fixtures list, match timings and venues for Bangladesh.

Currently, a 17-member squad led by Shakib Al Hasan is gearing up for the 2023 Asia Cup co-organised by Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Their campaign starts on August 31 against Sri Lanka.
The International Cricket Council has announced the warm-up game fixtures as a build-up to the 2023 ODI World Cup. Each team has been allotted two practice games to sharpen their skills and acclimatise to the conditions prior to the marquee event.
Hyderabad, Thiruvananthapuram and Guwahati are the three chosen venues for the preparation games across four days.
The 50-over fixtures won’t qualify for the ODI status as teams can field 15 members from their squads to test bench strength.
