Bangladesh is coming to play in India even as questions around its participation in the T20 World Cup 2026 continue to remain in focus.

Earlier, Bangladesh had expressed concerns about travelling to India for the T20 World Cup, leading to uncertainty and debate around its cricket team’s involvement.

However, the latest development shows that Bangladesh’s stance on travelling to India is not a blanket restriction across all sports.

Bangladesh has approved the travel of its athletes to India for the Asian Shooting Championships, an international event scheduled to be held in Delhi.

Why they are coming

The decision was taken after security assessments and coordination with event organisers, allowing Bangladesh’s shooting team to compete in a multi-nation tournament.

T20 World Cup context

While Bangladesh is coming to play in India for shooting events, its position on the T20 World Cup 2026 cricket matches remains unchanged, keeping the issue unresolved.
