ICC Rejects Bangladesh's T20 World Cup Venue Shift Request
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has said no to Bangladesh's request to move their T20 World Cup 2026 matches out of India.
Bangladesh was worried about the safety of their players and team officials.
The ICC said they need to play in India or they might lose points.
Bangladesh is upset and has decided not to show the Indian Premier League (IPL) in their country.

The ICC and India say there is no real danger, but Bangladesh is not sure.
They are thinking about what to do next.
