Bangladesh's security delegation arrive in Karachi for security check of women's cricket tour.

KARACHI -- A four member security delegation from Bangladesh arrived in Karachi on Thursday to oversee security and safety arrangements ahead of the arrival of the under 19 and women's cricket teams. The Bangladesh national team is to arrive in Pakistan on October 23 to play a series of three T20Is and two ODIs in Lahore between 26th October and 4th November. The U16 cricket team is also likely to arrive later this month to play a series of matches in Rawalpindi. While the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) was in agreement to send the team, it is still waiting for clearance from its government, which is expected after the report from the security delegation. Sources say that the four-member delegation doesn't have any representatives from BCB and that government officials and security agencies will be briefed on security measures arranged by Pakistani officials.
