The International Cricket Council (ICC) has told Bangladesh to agree to play their matches at T20 World Cup in India or risk being kicked out of the tournament, according to reports.

Bangladesh announced on Jan 4 that it would not play its T20 World Cup matches in India after its player Mustafizur Rahman was released by his Indian Premier League team amid growing tensions between the two countries. Subsequently, Bangladesh “formally requested” the ICC to shift their games to Sri Lanka.
