The ICC has replaced Bangladesh with Scotland at the 2026 T20 World Cup, the decision coming after nearly three weeks of negotiations with the BCB over its refusal to send a team to India due to security concerns.
The ICC informed its board members via email of the decision: “The BCB is not agreeable to playing the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 per the match schedule with their matches in India. We are, therefore, going ahead with the Board decision to replace Bangladesh in the tournament.”
