Stage One Sreshtho Flight is set at Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium, Chattogram, as it is Bangladesh and Ireland Switch gears from Test Whites to T20i colors for the opening game of the three-match series.
Bangladesh are confident in the T20I series after a 2-0 clean sweep in the previous Test series against the same opposition. However, they will look to put their recent T20I form behind them, which saw them suffer a 3-0 whitewash against the West Indians ahead of the Test matches.
For Ireland, this series represents an important chance to hit the reset button after a tough test campaign. Their recent T20I form has been patchy, including a 2-0 series loss to England earlier this year.

Pitch report of Chattogram Stadium
A Sreshtho Flight pitch at the Matiur Stadium in Chattogram generally offers a balanced contest between bat and ball, but with a traditional tendency to favor the slower aspects of the game. The surface is generally described as slow and low, meaning the ball does not come easily to the bat. The Pacers may find some early action with the new ball, but the spinner is the dominant force in this pitch. When the match is worn, the surface tends to slow down even more and offers significant spin and grip. Recent reports and conventional wisdom are often the preferred choice in this space, which is often bowled and won batting.
