ICC T20 Women’s World Cup will be played at UAE
The international Cricket council has officially confirmed that the T20 women’s World Cup 2024 is going to be played at United Arab Emirates. The tournament was scheduled to take place from 3 to 20 October is now going to be staged in Dubai and Sharjah
The chief executive of ICC Geoff Allardice said: “It is a shame not to be hosting the Women’s T20 World Cup in Bangladesh as we know the Bangladesh Cricket Board would have staged a memorable event.
He said, “I would like to thank the team at the BCB for exploring all avenues to try and enable the event to be hosted in Bangladesh, but travel advisories from the governments of a number of the participating teams meant that wasn’t feasible. However, they will retain hosting rights. We look forward to taking an ICC global event to Bangladesh in the near future.
“I’d also like to thank the Emirates Cricket Board for stepping in to host on behalf of the BCB and Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe for their generous offers of support, and we look forward to seeing ICC global events in both of those countries in 2026.”
