# Pakistan A cricket team against Bangladesh A in Australia in 2024

The Pakistan A cricket team toured Australia in July 2024 to play the Bangladesh HP XI. The bilateral series consisted of two four-day matches. The series was hosted by the Northern Territory Cricket Association on behalf of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
The four-day matches were used by Bangladesh to prepare their Test players for their upcoming ICC World Test Championship fixtures against Pakistan and India. In June 2024, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced the dates of the bilateral series. Pakistan A arrived in Darwin on 14 July 2024.
Following the bilateral fixtures, a tri-nation series was also held involving the two teams along with the Northern Territory cricket team. All the matches of the tour took place in Darwin, Northern Territory, marking Pakistan A's second successive Darwin tour.
