England's cricket tour of Bangladesh for September-October has been postponed until 2023, the two countries said on Tuesday as both struggled with the fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic. The nations' cricket boards said they had "mutually decided" to delay the three one-day internationals and three Twenty20 internationals. England are expected to play Pakistan in two T20 matches in October, with the T20 World Cup starting on 17 October in the UAE. England star Ben Stokes' decision to take an indefinite break from cricket because of mental health concerns has, in part, been blamed on a packed tour schedule. England will go to Bangladesh in the first two weeks of March 2023 to play the one-day games and T20s in Dhaka and Chittagong.
