Australia women’s cricket team
The Women’s T20 World Cup is to be held in Bangladesh this year. However, due to the ongoing violence and protests in Bangladesh, this tournament may be shifted to another venue. The ICC is considering this issue and a new venue can be announced at any time. Meanwhile, Australia’s women’s team captain Alyssa Healy has made a big statement regarding the T20 World Cup. She has said that playing the Women’s T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in October may not be right.
what did alyssa healy say
Alyssa Healy believes that hosting the T20 World Cup will put a lot of pressure on Bangladesh, which is still recovering from large-scale violence and protests in which hundreds of people were killed. The Women’s T20 World Cup is scheduled to be held in Bangladesh from October 3 to 19 in which 10 teams including defending champions Australia will participate. This also includes the Indian women’s cricket team.
Alyssa told Cricket Australia that I find it difficult to think about playing there at this time, as a human being I think it would be wrong to do so. He said that this would take away resources from a country that is struggling a lot. They need all the people who can reach there to help the people who are dying. Alyssa said that the final decision has to be taken by the ICC, which is expected to decide this week.
Recently visited Bangladesh
She said there are more important things than organising a cricket tournament in Bangladesh at the moment, but I leave it to the ICC to work on it. Australia recently played a limited-overs series in Bangladesh with all six matches – three ODIs and as many T20Is – played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. This was Australia’s first tour of Bangladesh since the 2014 T20 World Cup and was important for their preparations for the T20 World Cup in the country. Healy is confident that even if the tournament is shifted elsewhere, all the hard work will not go in vain.
