India will not step in to host October’s Women’s T20 World Cup if it has to be moved from Bangladesh, says Indian cricket board (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah. The International Cricket Council (ICC) says it is “closely monitoring developments” in the country, which is set to host the tournament from 3-20 October. Shah said the ICC asked the BCCI about possibly hosting instead but he “flatly refused”. “We would still be in the monsoon season and next year we are going to host the Women’s ODI World Cup,” Shah told The Times of India. “I do not want to give the impression that I want to hold consecutive World Cups.”
