It should be noted here that the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup is scheduled to be held in Bangladesh in October, but due to the political situation in Bangladesh and the violent protests against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wajid and her resignation, the ICC tournament has been shifted to another country. Considering shifting. The ICC will announce its final decision on August 20.
Sri Lanka and UAE are strong contenders to host the tournament after India declined to host it.
