T20 World Cup 2026: ICC Plays Down Bangladesh's Security Concern Amid Mustafizur Rahman Row
The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has played down concerns over Bangladesh’s participation in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 and has found "no specific or unmanageable risk" to the Bangladesh cricket team amid the ongoing Mustafizur Rahman situation.
The independent reviews conducted by the ICC have determined that there is an overall assessment of low to moderate levels of risk regarding the event in India and that no specific or direct threats exist for the Bangladesh team, Bangladesh team officials, or any of the event venues.
"The ICC is aware of public comments made in recent days concerning the participation of Bangladesh in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, including selective references to the ICC’s security risk assessment. It is important to clarify that the ICC’s independent risk assessments, carried out by internationally recognised security experts, do not conclude that Bangladesh cannot play its scheduled matches in India," an ICC source told IANS.
