People
around the world are curiously waiting to know the decision taken by the
International Cricket Council (ICC) officials regarding the host of the 2014
ICC Twenty20 World Cup in Bangladesh. Due to the political turmoil inside the
country, it looks like that Bangladesh is not able to host the event as it
raises security concern.
Pakistan
cricket team has already threatened
to pull out of Asia Cup and Twenty20 World Cup due to security issue. PCB
is anxious of growing anti-Pakistani sentiments in Bangladesh. They will wait
until January before taking the final decision.
PCB
is actively monitoring the political condition in Bangladesh but they are
waiting to see what decision the ICC is going to take in January whether to hold the World Twenty20 in
Bangladesh in March-April or shift it somewhere else.
So,
it is almost sure that PCB’s decision to pull out of the events depends on how
the Asian Cricket Council and ICC react to the situation in Bangladesh. Pakistan
has the possibility of not participating in the events if the situation in
Bangladesh gets worse.
It
is also said that the 2014 Twenty20 World Cup could be shifted from Bangladesh
to India if there is no improvement in the political condition of Bangladesh.
