The International Cricket Council, ICC, is mulling over shifting the Women’s T20 World Cup out of Bangladesh amid the ongoing civil unrest in the country.
The tournament is scheduled to be held in Bangladesh from October 3-20.
The ninth edition of the tournament is scheduled to be held across two venues.
However, just three months ahead of the event, the hosting rights of Bangladesh are in danger due to the massive civil unrest in the country.

Meanwhile, the High Court Judge of the Supreme Court of Guyana, Justice Navindra Singh today ordered and declared that the election of Azim Bassarath as Vice President of Cricket West Indies, CWI, was null, void and of no legal effect being contrary to the Articles of Association of Cricket West Indies.
Bassarath was elected on March 25, 2023.
The Guyana Cricket Board, GCB, in January, 2023 nominated Bassarath for the position of Vice President of CWI in accordance with
the Articles of Association of CWI.
GCB later withdrew the said nomination prior to the election.
The said withdrawal was done in writing and was premised on certain reports and information received by the GCB in relation to Bassarath’s conduct as President of the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board.
CWI has instructed its legal team to immediately file an appeal and will await the decision of the appellate Court.
