Bangladesh Cricket Board wants their T20 World Cup 2026 matches to be shifted from India to Sri Lanka. BCCI’s reply has also arrived on this. Let us tell you that only about 1 month is left for the tournament to start, the complete schedule has been released. Bangladesh is in Group C in the T20 World Cup. In the group stage, out of total 4 matches of Bangladesh, 3 matches are fixed at Eden Gardens and 1 match is fixed at Wankhede.
Bangladesh has to play 3 matches of its group stage at Eden Gardens in Kolkata and 1 match at Wankhede in Mumbai. Bangladesh Cricket Board is going to demand ICC to review the security arrangements in India. According to ESPN Cricinfo, BCB has decided that it will write a letter to the ICC regarding the current situation. BCCI has now made it clear that it is very difficult to make changes in the schedule of T20 World Cup 2026.
BCCI’s response to BCB’s demand
News agency PTI quoted a BCCI source as saying in its report, “You cannot change the match according to someone’s wish and choice. It is very difficult in terms of logistics. Think about the opposing teams. Their air tickets, hotels have been booked.”
The source further added, “Also, there are three matches each on all the days, which means one match is in Sri Lanka. The broadcast crew is also there. So this is easier said than done.”
