The Decision Review System will not be used in the upcoming series between Bangladesh and India, starting June 10.

Bangladesh Cricket Board president Nazmul Hasan told the media during the Tigers' jersey-unveiling ceremony at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on Monday, "Following discussions between the two boards, we have decided not to take the DRS for the upcoming home series against India. As far as I know, no team goes for the DRS while playing against India."

The umpire referral system was in place during the series against Pakistan, but because of the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s anti-DRS stand the BCB decided not to use the system in the one-off Test and three ODIs.

The one-off Test, in Fatullah, which stats on June 10, will be followed by the three ODIs on June 18, 21 and 24.
