ICC Rejects BCB’s Request, Keeps Bangladesh’s T20 World Cup Fixtures In India
The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday confirmed that Bangladesh’s matches in the upcoming 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup will be played in India, as per the original schedule.
The decision comes after an ICC Board meeting, featuring all members, which took place via video conferencing, after the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) requested that its fixtures be shifted to Sri Lanka, due to the BCCI instructing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to remove Mustafizur from its IPL 2026 squad amidst deteriorating relations between both countries.
The ICC said its decision was based on security assessments, including independent reviews, which found no threat to Bangladesh players, officials, media, or fans at any of the tournament venues in India. "Over the past several weeks, the ICC has engaged with the BCB in sustained and constructive dialogue, with the clear objective of enabling Bangladesh’s participation in the tournament.
