This will be one of the biggest ICC events in women's cricket, and the six-time champion Australia will defend their title. The tournament will have a total of ten teams that will compete in 23 games between October 3 and October 20.



These matches will be played in Dhaka and Sylhet in Bangladesh. But the current situation in Bangladesh is not well, as they are going through massive domestic turmoil at the moment. That might force some participating teams to look for security. The <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/">International Cricket Council</a> has not made a statement official, and they are reviewing the conditions closely.



But there is a chance that the ICC might shift the ICC Womens <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/t20-world-cup-2024-schedule-teams-and-qualification-venue-time-table-pdf-point-table-format-ranking-and-winning-prediction/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/t20-world-cup-2024-schedule-teams-and-qualification-venue-time-table-pdf-point-table-format-ranking-and-winning-prediction/">T20 World Cup</a> 2024 to a new place. In this article, we will talk about the three possible hosts for the ICC Womens <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/">T20 World Cup</a> 2024, if it might shift from <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/bangladesh/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/bangladesh/">Bangladesh</a>.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Three countries that can host the ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2024 if the ICC shifts it from Bangladesh</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">3. South Africa</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/South-Africa-ICC-Womens-T20-World-Cup-2024-1024x532.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-145451" /></figure>



South Africa hosted the last edition of the ICC Womens <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/">T20 World Cup</a> last year, which Australia won. It was a successful tournament, and it went through a smooth operation under Cricket South Africa. 



So, they can be considered to host the ICC event in consecutive years. They have managed some big cricket tournaments on short notice in the past and can be a good option to host the ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2024 this year.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">2. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/india/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/india/">India</a></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/India-ICC-Womens-T20-World-Cup-2024-1024x532.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-145452" /></figure>



Without a doubt, India will be among the front-runners to host the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICC_Women%27s_T20_World_Cup#Team_results_by_tournament" data-type="link" data-id="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICC_Women%27s_T20_World_Cup#Team_results_by_tournament">ICC Womens T20 World</a> Cup 2024 if it moves out of Bangladesh. India have a huge experience of hosting ICC events and will be hosting some big events in the coming years in both men's and women's cricket. 



Adding to that, the weather conditions in India during October are perfect and pleasant, where you can play cricket matches, and broadcasters will get paid better if the tournament comes in to India. And the success of the Women's Premier League makes India a perfect place to host women's matches.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">1. Sri Lanka</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/Sri-Lanka-ICC-Womens-T20-World-Cup-2024-1024x532.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-145453" /></figure>



Sri Lanka might come as the first choice for the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/icc-womens-t20-world-cup-2024-full-schedule-fixture-qualified-teams-announced-squads-and-more/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/icc-womens-t20-world-cup-2024-full-schedule-fixture-qualified-teams-announced-squads-and-more/">ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2024</a>. The conditions in <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/bangladesh/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/bangladesh/">Bangladesh </a>and Sri Lanka are not different, and recently Sri Lanka hosted the Women's Asia Cup 2023 successfully. 



They hosted the third edition of the Women's T20 World Cup in 2012, and the Sri Lankan cricket board will be more than happy to host this ICC event. The weather conditions are also better during that time of year, and the ICC can think to reward them with the hosting rights.

3 Nations that can host ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2024 if it shifts from Bangladesh

3-nations-that-can-host-icc-womens-t20-world-cup-2024-if-it-shifts-from-bangladesh

ICC Women's T20 World Cup: The rumors have come true and the hard-earned hosting rights of ICC Women's T20 World 2024 have been a missed opportunity for Bangladesh now as the International Cricket Board have announced a new host for ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024. 



The ICC have recently updated that the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024, set to be played in October, have been moved out of Bangladesh. The ongoing political crises in Bangladesh could be the main reason for the steps taken by the ICC.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/sultana-1.jpg" alt="NOT Bangladesh, ICC Announced New Host For ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024" class="wp-image-145871" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Bangladeshi Skipper Nigar Sultana</figcaption></figure>



Amid the outrage and instability of the crowd due to political reasons, the security and well-being of the players would never be assured and hence, ICC have decided to move the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 to the United Arab Emirates (UAE).



In the recent past, UAE has been one of the most significant countries in hosting cricket for the ICC. The country has hosted the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 and many other qualifier tournaments in the past couple of years.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/stadium-1.jpg" alt="NOT Bangladesh, ICC Announced New Host For ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024" class="wp-image-145872" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Sharjah Cricket Ground</figcaption></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">ICC Announcement of Shifting the Host of Women's T20 World Cup 2024</h4>



Announcing the big update, ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice said in a statement: "It is a shame not to be hosting the Women?s T20 World Cup in Bangladesh as we know the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) would have staged a memorable event."



Now, while making this announcement, he also ensured the hosting right of Bangladesh for the Women's tournament. 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,? he added. 



So, the big news from the ICC is that Bangladesh will not host the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 and ICC have decided UAE to host the T20 World Cup 2024.

NOT Bangladesh, ICC Announced New Host For ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024

not-bangladesh-icc-announced-new-host-for-icc-womens-t20-world-cup-2024

India?s Cricket Governing Body, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced the Indian Women?s Cricket Team?s squad for the upcoming ICC?s T20 World Cup 2024. Experienced Campaigner Harmanpreet Kaur will handle the team?s leadership duties while opening batter Smriti Mandhana will be the vice-captain.



The Women in Blue, who lost in the semi-finals of the previous edition against Australia are part of Group A alongside fierce rivals Australia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and New Zealand.&nbsp;



The Harmanpreet Kaur-led team will open their 2024 Women?s T20 World Cup campaign against New Zealand on the 4th of October at Dubai?s International Cricket Stadium while the highly anticipated India vs Pakistan clash will be played on the 6th of October at the same venue.&nbsp;



The Indian Women?s Cricket Team has made just a single change from their recent Asia Cup 2024 campaign with Yastika Bhatia replacing Uma Chetry in the 15-member squad. Uma instead is a party of the travelling reserves alongside Saima Thakor and Tanuja Kanwer.

</div></figure>



Alongside Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur, the likes of Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Verma, and Dayalan Hemalatha will form the batting unit of the team while Sajana Sajeevan is a part of the team as well.&nbsp;



Deepti Sharma will lead the spin bowling unit and she will be supported by left-arm orthodox spinner Radha Yadav and leggie Asha Sobhana, who will be playing her first ever World Cup at the age of 33.



The pace bowling unit of the Women in Blue will continue to be led by Renuka Thakur, Arundhati Reddy, and Pooja Vastrakar.



Harmanpreet Kaur and her girls faced a heartbreaking defeat by eight wickets against hosts Sri Lanka in the recently concluded Women?s Asia Cup 2024, preventing the Indians from lifting their record eighth Asian Cup trophy.



The two teams will face each other again in the group stage of the upcoming Women?s T20 World Cup 2024 and India will be looking to take revenge for their defeat in the Asia Cup Final.



India?s squad for the upcoming ICC Women?s T20 World Cup 2024: Shafali Verma, Harmanpreet Kaur (Captain), Jemimah Rodrigues, Smriti Mandhana (Vice-Captain), Deepti Sharma, Yastika Bhatia (WK), Richa Ghosh (WK), Arundhati Reddy, Pooja Vastrakar, Renuka Singh Thakur, Asha Sobhana, Dayalan Hemalatha, Radhav Yadav, Sajana Sajeevan and Shreyanka Patil*.

The ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 is set to kick off on October 3rd in the UAE. Originally scheduled to be hosted by Bangladesh, the tournament was relocated due to political unrest in the country.



Australia, the reigning champions, will enter the competition with high expectations, having won the previous edition in South Africa and securing three consecutive ICC Women?s T20 World Cup titles. They will be aiming for a remarkable fourth consecutive victory this year.

India is still in pursuit of their first ICC Women's T20 World Cup title.

I was heartbroken for Indian fans on their last match of the group stage but the competition is not done yet! The top four quality teams are in the semifinals and all the eyes are on the coveted shining World Cup 2024 Trophy.



India lost their first match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 against New Zealand and that made them pay in the form of elimination in the first round. However, they had a chance against Australia but it was not meant to happen.

Australia are the real mighty in Women's cricket and their 15-match winning streak is pretty heavy proof of the statement and they are again the best side in the contest for the cup.

South Africa are in their second final in a row and this time they don't have the mighty Australia in the opposite corner. In the last final, South Africa lost to Australia but they took equal revenge by eliminating Australia in the semifinals this year. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/10/389281.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-148654" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Chole Tryon embraces Anneke Bosch | Image: Getty Images / ICC</figcaption></figure>



South Africa were not the favorites to reach the final but they broke the delusion by first defeating West Indies by 10 wickets in the tournament and now they are in the finals. They will have their heads up and confident for the match tonight.



New Zealand, on the other hand, entered the tournament with a 10-match losing streak and everyone sidelined them in the top four teams. With a meticulously crafted year-long strategy, Sophie Devine and her team delivered a shocking blow to one of the tournament favorites in their opener. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/10/NZ-W-to-play-final-against-SA-W-1024x576.webp" alt="Women T20 World Cup: Clash of the Titans!

This victory virtually secured their spot in the knockout stage, where they later exacted revenge on the team that had previously denied them a semifinal berth and they are high on the confidence for the final today.

In Dubai, chasing teams have emerged victorious in 7 out of 11 matches, with four of those wins coming in the last five games played, all of which were night matches. Both West Indies and South Africa successfully chased targets in their recent games to secure spots in the semifinals and final, respectively.



The surface is expected to be fresh but still, it didn't seem to be a high-scoring final. Expect a low-scoring but thrilling contest between two quality teams in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024.

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali talked about the delay in the squad of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 for the Pakistan team. He said that it might look like they are scared of announcing the team, but it seems that they don't know what to do. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is around the corner and all the teams have named their squad for the tournament except the hosts Pakistan. The Men in Green are yet to announce the team even though the deadline of 12th January has already been surpassed by a long margin. 
India, Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan have all revealed their squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This has made many speculate about why Pakistan isn't announcing their squad for the tournament, which is less than one month away. 
There have been several reports that Pakistan will be announcing their squad for the tournament soon. They are awaiting the fitness of a few players, and hence, they will soon be naming the team. Some reports also have revealed the players who will be playing, but an official announcement is yet to come. 
<h2>Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai - Basit Ali </h2>
Amid all this, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali commented on the same, saying that no one knows what is happening. He speculated that they might be waiting for the fitness report on Saim Ayub. Speaking in a video posted on his YouTube channel, he explained: 
"Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai -- karein to kya karein? (Is Pakistan scared to announce their squad? No, it isn't, just unsure what to do and what not). The biggest issue is whether Saim Ayub can return fit or not. It's still not clear." 
It remains to be seen when will Pakistan announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The tournament is all set to take place from 19th February, with the final all set to be played on 9th March.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has issued a warning to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over the jersey controversy ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This comes after the Indian governing body refused to write 'Pakistan' on their kits for the tournament. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which is all set to be hosted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), is scheduled to begin on 19th February. The preparations for the tournament are on, and the ICC and the PCB are taking every step possible to make sure that everything is right on track. 
However, a controversy recently erupted after BCCI refused to write Pakistan on their jersey for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Notably, every participating nation, as per the ICC policy, has to write the name of the host nation below the logo of the tournament on their jersey. 
After BCCI refused to sport it, Pakistan Cricket Board officials made a strong statement, saying that BCCI is trying to use politics in every matter. He, however, mentioned that they are hopeful that ICC will support them and India will be asked to write the name of the jersey on their kits for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
<h2>It is the responsibility of every team to add the tournament logo to their jerseys - ICC official </h2>
Following this, BCCI also reacted, and the insider from the governing body said that since they are playing in Dubai, it isn't mandatory for them to wear the 'Pakistan written jersey'. The BCCI also stressed that they didn't write Pakistan's name on the podium of the Trophy tours as well. 
Amid all this, ICC has come up with a strong response for the BCCI. An ICC official mentioned that it is the responsibility of the host nation to add the tournament logo to their jersey. He stated: 
"It is the responsibility of every team to add the tournament logo to their jerseys. All teams are obligated to comply with this rule," an ICC official said as per A-Sports, as quoted by NDTV. 
Not only this, it is learned that the ICC also warned BCCI that they would be taking strict action if they didn't wear the Pakistan-written jersey during the tournament.

India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh is all set to achieve the most massive feat in the history of T20I cricket in the upcoming T20I series against England. The series between the teams will begin on 22nd January at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. 
Arshdeep Singh is just 5 wickets away from becoming the first Indian bowler to pick 100 wickets in the T20Is. With India set to play a five-match T20I series against England, it is expected that the pacer will be achieving the feat in the upcoming series. 
This comes as a remarkable feat because Arshdeep Singh made his debut during 2022, and to reach to 100 wickets within the span of around 2 years is staggering. The left-arm pacer has been nothing short of exceptional in the T20 format and is one of the most consistent performers with the ball for the team. 
Arshdeep Singh has been sensational with the new ball as well as in death. In the last few years, he has proved to be the biggest match-winner for India in T20Is. The pacer has won many games for the team on his own and will be keen to carry on the same form in the upcoming series. 
<h2>Arshdeep Singh was one of the major reasons behind India winning the T20 World Cup 2024</h2>
Arshdeep Singh was one of the major reasons behind India winning the T20 World Cup 2024.  He was the joint-highest wicket-taker in the series with 17 wickets to his name as he oozed his class with both new ball and old ball, helping India to end their title drought.
Arshdeep Singh will be extremely important for India in the upcoming T20I series against England. The pacer will be key for the team alongside Mohammed Shami, who will be making his comeback to the team after a long injury break. The duo will be leading the attack for the team. 
With the kind of performances that he has displayed, Arshdeep Singh is likely to play all five games in the series. It won't be a surprise if he gets to 100 wickets in the first two games of the series against England.

The India and Pakistan rivalry has been a great contest on the cricket field, as well as the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, marked by intense competition between the neighbouring nations and passionate fan engagement.

Delhi Capitals IPL 2025: The Delhi Capitals (DC) find themselves in a fascinating position ahead of the IPL 2025 season. The team is primed for success with a revamped squad and a renewed focus. However, one crucial question looms large: who should lead the team? The experienced KL Rahul, or the dependable all-rounder Axar Patel? Let’s break down the dynamics and possibilities that each captaincy option offers.
<h2>KL Rahul: The Veteran Leader</h2>
KL Rahul comes to Delhi with a rich IPL pedigree. Over the years, he has proven himself as a prolific run-scorer, amassing over 4,600 runs at a phenomenal average of 45-plus. His experience as captain of the Punjab Kings and Lucknow Super Giants has shown his ability to guide a team to playoff stages, which he achieved twice with LSG. Rahul’s batting consistency and calm demeanor make him an attractive choice to lead DC.
However, Rahul’s captaincy style has been criticized for being conservative, particularly regarding his strike rate and decision-making in crunch moments. This could be a concern for a team like the Delhi Capitals, which boasts explosive batting talent and needs a captain capable of effectively utilizing this firepower.
<h2>Axar Patel: The Fresh Perspective</h2>
On the other hand, Axar Patel represents a new-age leader with a wealth of experience in high-pressure situations. Axar has been DC's vice-captain and even stepped in as captain for a game in IPL 2024. His ability to contribute with both bat and ball makes him a key player, and his recent appointment as India’s T20 vice-captain adds to his leadership credentials.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679063ce6ad86.jpg" alt="">
Axar’s performances last season were nothing short of stellar, with 235 runs at a healthy strike rate and 11 wickets at an economy of 7.66. His all-around prowess, coupled with his understanding of the DC squad, makes him a strong contender for the captaincy.
Choosing between Rahul and Axar is essentially a choice between two distinct leadership styles. Rahul brings stability and experience, having captained for multiple IPL seasons. His presence can calm nerves during tense moments, which is invaluable for a team aiming for the playoffs. Axar, however, offers a dynamic and aggressive approach, potentially aligning better with DC’s young and energetic squad.
<h2>Delhi Capitals, the Squad</h2>
Delhi’s 2025 squad is packed with talent across the board. In the batting department, players like Harry Brook, Tristan Stubbs, and Jake Fraser-McGurk add explosive options, while KL Rahul himself remains a cornerstone at number three. The pace unit, led by Mitchell Starc and supported by T Natarajan and Mukesh Kumar, is formidable. However, the reliance on Axar and Kuldeep Yadav in the spin department highlights a potential area of concern.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679063cab56d5.jpg" alt="">
Delhi Capitals Squad: Harry Brook, Jake Fraser-McGurk, KL Rahul, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, Ashutosh Sharma, Mohit Sharma, Sameer Rizvi, Karun Nair, Faf du Plessis, Mukesh Kumar, Darshan Nalkande, Dushmantha Chameera, Vipraj Nigam, Ajay Mandal, Manwanth Kumar, Trupurana Vijay, Madhav Tiwari. DC retentions: Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Tristan Stubbs, Abishek Porel.
<h2>The Strategic Impact of Captaincy</h2>
Under Rahul, DC might adopt a more methodical approach, relying on his ability to anchor innings and guide young players like Abishek Porel and Fraser-McGurk. Axar’s leadership could inject a more fearless and intuitive style, encouraging aggressive cricket and leveraging DC’s bench strength, including veterans like Faf du Plessis.
One key consideration is how the captaincy might affect their individual performances. While Rahul’s form as an opener has been a consistent asset, Axar’s ability to contribute with both bat and ball is crucial to DC’s balance. Assigning the captaincy to Axar could be a gamble, but it might pay off if it inspires the team to rally around a fresh vision.
Ultimately, the choice of captain will reflect DC’s strategic priorities. If the franchise prioritizes experience and a steady hand, KL Rahul is the natural choice. However, if they aim for a bold and innovative approach, Axar Patel might be the leader to take them to new heights.
Either way, the Delhi Capitals possess the ingredients for a successful campaign, and the captaincy debate only adds to the intrigue surrounding their 2025 IPL journey. They are one of the strong contenders for the trophy this year.

KL Rahul or Axar Patel, who could be the Next Leader of Capitals?

Delhi Capitals faces a tough captaincy choice for IPL 2025: experienced KL Rahul or dynamic Axar Patel. Both offer distinct leadership styles, which will shape DC's approach with their star-studded squad and bold ambitions.

Delhi Capitals must choose between KL Rahul’s steady leadership or Axar Patel’s dynamic approach to maximize their IPL 2025 potential.
