Bangladesh T20 World Cup Venue Change Explored: Chennai, Thiruvananthapuram Possible

  • Bangladesh's demand to shift T20 World Cup matches out of India is unlikely to be met by ICC.
  • Cricbuzz reports Chennai and Thiruvananthapuram are being explored as new venues for Bangladesh's group matches.
  • BCB had requested ICC to move matches to Sri Lanka citing security concerns for players.
  • ICC is reportedly unwilling to accommodate the request with less than a month left for the tournament.
  • BCCI has informed TNCA and KCA about the potential venue change; TNCA confirmed readiness with eight pitches.

Why It Matters: Bangladesh's T20 World Cup matches may shift to Chennai or Thiruvananthapuram, not Sri Lanka.
