These three T20Is will give an idea about their nature.
On the other hand, Bangladesh will have different goals to achieve in the same series. Ahead of the matches against South Africa, Netherlands, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, some attempts will be made, albeit on a small scale, to find the final puzzle of T20 on the Asian side.
