‘We Have Officially Intimated The ICC That, The T20 World Cup Can Be Shifted To The UAE’: Sourav Ganguly

The next T20 World Cup has been moved from India to the UAE, according to BCCI President Sourav Ganguly. The current COVID-19 scenario, as well as the prospect of a third wave of the virus later this year, might be factors. After COVID cases within the bubble, the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) had to be stopped in the middle of the season. Let’s discuss Which Country will Host T20 World Cup 2021.

The T20 World Cup was supposed to be decided by the International Cricket Council in the first week of June. However, the BCCI requested four weeks to consider the subject before deciding to move the major event to the UAE because of the COVID-19 circumstance.

Which Country will Host T20 World Cup 2021

“We have officially intimated the ICC that the T20 World Cup can be shifted to the United Arab Emirates. The details are being chalked out,” Ganguly was quoted as saying in an Interview.

Furthermore, the main event’s dates were announced a few days ago. The T20 World Cup will start off on October 17 and go until November 15. Moreover, despite the fact that the competition will be held in the UAE, BCCI will keep the hosting rights.

In terms of the T20 WC format, the first round will include 8 teams

The tournament’s schedule has yet to be announced, and the dates have yet to be formally revealed. With the IPL 2021 set to take place from September 19 to October 15, the opening round of matches might take place in Oman. In terms of the T20 WC format, the first round will include eight teams: Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Scotland, Namibia, Ireland, Netherlands, Oman, and Papua New Guinea.
