Recently, the Bangladesh Cricket Board requested the International Cricket Council to shift all their T20I World Cup matches from India to a neutral venue, citing security concerns. Amid the ongoing tussle between the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), a major setback is likely on the way for the Tigers. However, the ICC blatantly refused their request and asked them to either play in India or forfeit their points. On Thursday, BCB again requested ICC to shift their matches from India, citing security concerns of their players and officials. Meanwhile, Bangladesh is in Group C in the upcoming T20I World Cup alongside West Indies, Italy, Nepal, and England.
