The board says that if it gets this opportunity, it will ensure every necessary arrangement for the successful organization of the tournament. Preparations are already being made to provide world-class facilities for players, officials and spectators. The Board hopes that its preparations will meet the expectations of the Council.

If Bangladesh gets the hosting rights of Asia Cup 2027 then this prestigious tournament will be held there again after almost 11 years. This will give new energy to cricket in the country and will also give local fans an opportunity to enjoy big international matches at home. There is also a possibility of promoting regional cricket and strengthening sports tourism.

This Asia Cup, to be held in ODI format, is also considered important because through it many Asian teams will finalize their preparations for the upcoming big international tournaments.
