Playing World Cup in Bangladesh would be the wrong thing to do - Alyssa Healy
In the midst of developing political strife in Bangladesh, Australia ladies' group commander Alyssa Healy has said that playing the Ladies' T20 World Cup there 'would be some unacceptable thing to do'. The masterpiece occasion was initially planned for the Asian country from October 3 to 20, yet the ICC is yet to accept a last call.
"I'd find it hard to comprehend playing there [in Bangladesh] right now, as a person, I feel like it very well may be some unacceptable thing to do," Healy said. "(That would be) removing assets from a country that is truly battling. They're requiring everybody they might perhaps get in there aiding individuals that are passing on.
"There's clearly greater elements having an effect on everything than putting a cricket competition on in Bangladesh right now ... however, I'll pass on it to the ICC to work out," Healy added.
The turmoil and the ousting of the occupant government had prompted State head Sheik Hasina escaping the country. In the result of the circumstance, BCB head Nazmul Hasan is accounted for to have proposed to give up his post while Jalal Yunus, the board's cricket activities director has authoritatively surrendered on Monday (August 19).
Despite the fact that Bangladesh actually hold trusts setting their home up and facilitating the competition as initially arranged, India have administered themselves out of the running while UAE has arisen as an elective scene.
While a choice from the ICC is normal on Tuesday (August 20), Healy figured a late switch in scene for the competition won't bother the 2023 heroes. Australia visited Bangladesh in Spring April this year and left away with a 3-0 T20I series triumph, which she accepts will hold her group in great stead on sluggish, turning pitches.
"Going there and becoming accustomed to those circumstances and slow turning wickets has presumably placed us in a decent spot. It's more about what our group resembles, and what individuals are working on independently headed into a World Cup on the subcontinent," Healy thought.
"Whether it is in Bangladesh, or it's not in Bangladesh, I don't think influences us significantly with the make-up of what we have. We're completely ready for whatever is tossed at us."
The competition will start off on October 3 with finalists South Africa taking on 2009 champs Britain.
