In March 2023, Cricket Ireland (CI) confirmed that all three ODIs would be played at Chelmsford in England. This was due to better weather in England than in Ireland, leading to a better chance of full matches being played to a result.

Going into the series, Ireland needed to win all three matches to claim the eighth and final automatic place in the 2023 Cricket World Cup at the expense of South Africa. South Africa's qualification for the World Cup was confirmed when the first ODI ended with no result due to rain. The result meant that Ireland had to go through the 2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier to qualify for the 2023 Cricket World Cup.

The first ODI ended in a no result due to rain. Bangladesh won the series 2–0.
