Nahyan mabarak al nahyan

ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice: A contingent from the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) comprising President Faruque Ahmed and CEO Nizam Uddin Chowdhury met Nahyan Mabarak Al Nahyan, the Chairman of Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) in Abu Dhabi ahead of Women’s T20 World Cup.

In a statement, ECB said ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice along with other board officials were also present on the occasion, where matters about staging the upcoming ten-team tournament were discussed.

The 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup was moved to the UAE from Bangladesh by the ICC on August 20 due to political instability and safety concerns in the Asian country. The 23-match tournament will now be staged in Dubai and Sharjah from October 3-20. The BCB will remain the host of the tournament while the ECB will deliver the event.
