Amidst escalating diplomatic tensions between India and Bangladesh, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has requested the International Cricket Council (ICC) to shift their T20 World Cup matches from India to Sri Lanka, citing security concerns. This decision follows the Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) directive to the Kolkata Knight Riders to release Bangladeshi pacer Mustafizur Rahman from their IPL squad. Bangladesh officials stated they would not tolerate any insult to their cricketers and country, questioning India's ability to ensure team security.
