The ICC on Tuesday moved the upcoming Women`s T20 World Cup 2024 from Bangladesh to the UAE, saying it "wasn`t feasible" to conduct the event there after governments of a number of participating countries advised against travelling to the unrest-hit nation.
The event, which also features India and is scheduled to take place from October 3 to 20, will now be staged in Dubai and Sharjah with Bangladesh retaining the hosting rights, ensuring that it receives its share of revenue from the event.
