# Zimbabwean cricket team in Bangladesh in 2024

The Zimbabwe men's cricket team toured Bangladesh in May 2024 to play five Twenty20 International (T20I) matches. The tour originally had two Tests as well along with the five T20Is. However, in March 2024, the Test series was postponed to 2025. The T20I matches formed part of Bangladesh's preparation for the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. In March 2024, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) confirmed the fixtures for the tour. At the end of the series, Zimbabwe cricketer Sean Williams announced his retirement from T20 Cricket.
