ICC Rejects Bangladesh's Demand: T20 World Cup Standoff Looms

• The ICC explicitly rejected the Bangladesh Cricket Board's (BCB) demand to move T20 World Cup matches from India.
• Bangladesh was warned by the ICC to play in India or risk losing crucial points.
• Bangladesh has 3 matches scheduled in Kolkata and 1 in Mumbai, starting February 7.
• Three options remain for Bangladesh: move matches to Sri Lanka, forfeit games, or boycott the tournament entirely.
• BCCI faces criticism over a ban on Bangladeshi players due to atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh, but ICC supports BCCI's stance.

Why It Matters: ICC stands firm on India as T20 World Cup host, leaving Bangladesh with tough choices.
