With both governments in talks at the highest level, this series could be the first major sporting bridge since political shifts shook ties. Remember when Bangladesh skipped the T20 World Cup 2026 over visa issues? Or when Mustafizur Rahman was pulled from IPL? Those weren’t just cricket stories; they were signs of friction. Now, with Tarique Rahman as PM and India restoring visas, things are thawing. Even India’s High Commissioner got Cabinet rank. And Tamim Iqbal’s recent visit to BCCI’s Bangalore CoE? Not a coincidence. Cricket, as always, is being used to mend what politics broke. Hasina’s presser in Delhi might’ve caused noise, but insiders say it won’t derail the tour. Bottom line: a short white-ball series might just be the soft reset both nations need; and it could start sooner than we think.
