The Bangladesh Board, which is throwing tantrums about playing its World Cup matches in India, is trying to convince the ICC. There was a request that his matches should be held in Sri Lanka. Otherwise, its group should be swapped with a team whose all group matches are in Sri Lanka. One such team is Ireland but it has clearly refused that it will not change the group. Meanwhile, Pakistan has played a new trick. He has threatened that if the Bangladesh issue is not resolved then he may reconsider participating in the T20 World Cup. However, he has not given any official statement regarding this or the ICC has not said so.

Pakistan had given a big scare in Asia Cup also
By the way, this is not the first time that Pakistan has made any noise. Last year, in the Asia Cup, when the Indian captain and the team did not shake hands with the Pakistani captain and the team at the time of the toss and after the end of the match, he had given a call to boycott the tournament. Because of this, the match between UAE and Pakistan started late. After tantrums and drama, Pakistan’s arrogance finally came to light and the reality of its arrogance also came to light. Coincidentally, India won the Asia Cup by defeating Pakistan in the final but Pakistan’s trophy thief Mohsin Naqvi went to the hotel with the trophy. Till date, India has not received that Asia Cup trophy.
