PCB Backs Bangladesh's Refusal to Play in India
Kashmir Observer
|JANUARY 22, 2026 ISSUE
The Pakistan Cricket Board has backed Bangladesh's stance of refusing to play its T20 World Cup matches in India due to "security concerns” and offered to host the country's matches in a communication to the ICC.
The ICC Board is scheduled to meet on Wednesday to take a final call on Bangladesh's participation, including whether the team will travel to India for the tournament starting February 7.
Bangladesh are slated to play all four of their group-stage matches in India, with the first three scheduled in Kolkata and the remaining one in Mumbai.
However, the Bangladesh Cricket Board, supported by its government, has remained adamant and sought a shift of its matches to co-hosts Sri Lanka.
