Bangladesh complete their tour of the UK with ODIs against Scotland and Netherlands on Monday and Tuesday respectively.

The Tigers move on to Glasgow after their two-ODI series against Ireland, which concludes on Friday.

The elation of a famous limited-overs victory over England - their first international win of 2010 - has since been tempered by a comprehensive defeat in the deciding match of the series at Edgbaston and a similarly resounding defeat at the hands of the Irish in Thursday's opening ODI in Belfast.

Scotland should also offer stiff opposition as they go into next week's game on a high after reaching the final of the recent ICC World Cricket League Division One.

Former captain Gavin Hamilton and English county players Kyle Coetzer and Josh Davey bolster the squad that did so well in the Netherlands.

Scotland head coach Peter Steindl said: "We are looking forward to playing another Test-playing nation at home. We aim to continue the fighting spirit that we have demonstrated so far this season and look forward to the challenge that Bangladesh will provide us."

Netherlands will then look for a strong performance against the Tigers the following day, after failing to fire during the WCL on home turf.

Both matches will be played at the Citylets Titwood ground in Glasgow with tickets available on the day (£15 for adults, £10 for senior citizens and students and £7.50 for under-18s).
