What you have heard indicates that the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 will take place somewhere other. It is accurate! Instead of Bangladesh, this year the competition will take place in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Tell us the cause of this and the possible repercussions.
Tournament from Bangladesh heading to the UAE
The International Cricket Council (ICC) rendered a big decision. From Bangladesh to UAE, they have relocated the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 The competition will now take place in Dubai and Sharjah between 3 and 20 October. Still, you have to be wondering why this was done. The political environment of Bangladesh nowadays is not good. That country’s government has changed and this has led to unrest inside it. This has caused problems with the athletes’ safety in that arena. The ICC thought that any disturbance could destroy the whole competition. They so chose a safe place—that of the UAE. Before, the UAE held several big cricket events; the facilities there were also really first-rate.
Political discontent and security concerns
Bangladesh has lately undergone a major change. Eliminated is the past Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Since then, the locals have emerged on the streets and are angry. Violence has also happened in many other places. Under such conditions, other countries thought that should they send their players there, their security may be compromised. The ICC further thought that should something go wrong, the whole event would be tarnished. They thus reasoned that it should be taken to somewhere free of such a worry.
UAE’s readiness and top-notch infrastructure
In the UAE, sometimes referred to as the United Arab Emirates, cricket is fairly popular. The past has seen a lot of big competition. And there was the Men’s T20 World Cup set for 2021. The United Arab Emirates features really good cricket-playing sites and infrastructure. Furthermore housed in the United Arab Emirates is the head headquarters of the ICC. They so reasoned that holding this tournament there would be perfect. Sharjah and Dubai will be hosts of this event in two United Arab Emirates cities. Both venues have nice stadiums where thousands of people can watch the game.
Will plan a major event in Bangladesh continuing forward.
ICC Chief Officer Geoff Allardyce expressed regret about not being able to plan this tournament in Bangladesh. Since the Bangladesh Cricket Board has tried every bit to get things done there, he has valued them. ICC has also said that Bangladesh will host a big event not too far off. Friends, now you see why Bangladesh has shifted the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 to UAE. Though this is a big change, it won’t reduce the excitement of the competition. Everybody will wait to learn which team will win this time!
