The first game against Bangladesh takes place in Perth on 3 September 2015, with the second game taking place in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, just five days later.
Jason will join up with the national team following Town’s Sky Bet Championship game at home to Queens Park Rangers on Saturday 29 August and will return ahead of the Club’s following game at Cardiff City on 12 September.
