Pakistan May Reconsider T20 World Cup Amid Bangladesh-ICC Standoff

• Pakistan is reportedly reconsidering its T20 World Cup participation in support of Bangladesh, if the venue crisis remains unresolved.
• The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) refuses to send its team to India for the T20 World Cup, citing security concerns, despite ICC talks.
• Bangladesh has sought and received positive diplomatic and cricketing support from Pakistan regarding the standoff.
• The ICC is unlikely to accept Bangladesh's demand to play all matches in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, or UAE, as security audits found no threats in India.
• Bangladesh's proposed venue swap with Ireland was rejected, as Ireland insists on sticking to the current schedule.
