Prior to the tour, Shakib Al Hasan had requested a break from international cricket,[13] with the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) initially agreeing to his request.[14] However, after a meeting with the BCB's President, Nazmul Hassan, Shakib agreed to travel to South Africa.[15] In March 2022, Cricket South Africa (CSA) agreed to allow their Test-playing cricketers to chose between the matches against Bangladesh or playing in the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL), with a unanimous vote for them to play in the IPL.[16] As a result, South Africa named a weakened squad for the Test matches,[17] with Marco Jansen, Aiden Markram, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada and Rassie van der Dussen all playing in the IPL.[18]
