Jay Shah (Pic Source-Twitter) Jay Shah on Women’s T20 World Cup 2024: There has been a political upheaval in Bangladesh in the last few days, due to which there is a tense atmosphere in Bangladesh. The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 was scheduled to be held in Bangladesh. But given the tense atmosphere, it seems difficult for this tournament to be organized in Bangladesh. There was news that Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) had requested India to host the World Cup tournament. After this, discussions started that this competition could be organized in India. But now big information is coming out that BCCI has rejected this request. It is being told that BCCI has taken this decision by giving more priority to the Test series against Bangladesh. Why did Jay Shah reject the request to host Women’s T20 World Cup in India? Speaking to the Times of India, Jai Shah said, “They had asked if BCCI could host the Women’s T20 World Cup, but I flatly refused. At that time we will be in the monsoon season and next year we have to host the Women’s ODI World Cup anyway. I do not want to create a misconception that we want to host consecutive World Cup tournaments.” Let us tell you that the Women’s T20 World Cup will be played in 2 grounds of Bangladesh from 3-20 October. But due to the coup in the country, the tournament seems unlikely to be organized. In such a situation, the ICC is keeping an eye on the whole matter.

From September 19, both these teams will take the field for a series of 2 Test matches. Talking about this series, Jai Shah has said that the Test series against Bangladesh is very important for us.
