The Bangladesh national cricket team toured Pakistan for cricket matches during the 2003 season.

This was Bangladesh's second tour to Pakistan, with the first occurring in 2001-02, when the teams played one test.

Prior to this series, Bangladesh toured Australia in July and August 2003, where they lost the ODI series 3 - 0 and the test match series 2 - 0.[1] Pakistan toured England in June 2003, losing the ODI series (Natwest Challenge) 2 - 1.[2]

This series was the first international test cricket series to be held in Pakistan after a 15 month absence due to security concerns. [3] The Pakistan squad also included 7 players without any previous test cricket experience, after many senior players (such as Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Saeed Anwar) retired. [4]

The series ended in whitewash, with Pakistan winning the test series 3 - 0 and the ODI series 5 - 0. [5] This was Pakistan's first home test series win since defeating the West Indies in 1997-98. [6] Bagladeshi player Alok Kapali became the first Bangladeshi cricketer and the 31st cricketer overall to take a test hat-trick. [7] Pakistan captain, Rashid Latif, was banned for 5 one day internationals after the test series for claiming a dropped catch. [8]
