Bangladesh Asks ICC to Move T20 World Cup Matches From India Citing Security Threats

A major controversy is brewing in the world of cricket, as reported by India Today. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has officially requested the International Cricket Council (ICC) to move all of its T20 World Cup matches out of India, citing 'security threats to some of their players'. This development follows the recent controversy where Bangladeshi player Mustafizur Rahman was released by his IPL franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders, reportedly under pressure on the BCCI. The BCB's request mirrors a similar move by Pakistan, which has already arranged for its matches to be played in the tournament's joint-host nation, Sri Lanka. The ICC has not yet made a decision on the BCB's request to have its matches rescheduled in Sri Lanka.
