Bangladesh Seek 48 Hours from ICC to Consult Government on Playing T20 World Cup Matches in India

By IANS News January 22, 2026 • 09:04 AM View: 589

Bangladesh Cricket Board has requested the International Cricket Council (ICC) for 48 hours' time to convey their decision to the government regarding playing their matches of the upcoming T20 World Cup in India and take a decision, a news report said.

BCB officials, on request not to be named, told Telecom Asia Sport on Wednesday, hours after the ICC rejected Bangladesh’s plea to relocate their matches from India after the BCB failed to provide much support, except from the Pakistan Cricket Board, during the voting in the virtual meeting that was attended by 16 members.
