The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Saturday released a revised schedule for the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, which will get underway on February 7, following the official confirmation of Scotland as Bangladesh’s replacement in the tournament.
The update comes after weeks of discussions between the ICC and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) failed to yield a resolution. With the BCB maintaining a firm stance on playing its matches in India, the ICC ultimately took a decisive step and announced Scotland as the replacement team for Bangladesh.
As per the revised schedule, the ICC has confirmed that all venues announced earlier will host matches as originally planned, with Scotland’s inclusion not impacting the overall venue allocation for the marquee event.
