T20 wc bangladesh

T20 WC Bangladesh: BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said that the Board of Control for Cricket in India has not received any update from the International Cricket Council regarding a reported shift in venue for Bangladesh’s T20 World Cup matches, stating that it’s a matter of discussion between the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and the ICC.

India and Sri Lanka are set to co-host the T20 World Cup, starting February 7. However, Bangladesh’s cricketing board wrote a letter to the ICC requesting that its matches be shifted to Sri Lanka, citing security concerns amid growing tensions between the two neighbouring nations. The BCB also stated that they had received a response from the ICC, with the governing council assuring them that they would look into the matter.

On Monday, reports indicated that the ICC is considering alternative venues for Bangladesh’s matches, and it seems unlikely that Bangladesh will play in Sri Lanka, a venue they preferred, with Chennai and Trivandrum reportedly emerging as the potential options instead of the originally designated venues in Kolkata and Mumbai.
