Match Details


For the unversed, Bangladesh had earlier refused to play its matches in India
citing security concerns. However, as its delegation committee expressed satisfaction with the arrangements made in India
the ICC had sought a final answer from the BCB, stating it was improbable to reschedule Bangladesh's matches at the eleventh hour.
So, when the Bangladesh government didn't come up with a positive response, the ICC followed due procedure, replacing the Tigers with Scotland as the fifth team in group C.
This infuriated PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who accused the ICC of biased behaviour for treating Bangladesh differently from India and Pakistan and not allotting it an alternative.
Bangladesh is a full ICC member like Pakistan. If a similar favour has been extended to Pakistan and India.
