Healy Questions Legitimacy of Women's T20 World Cup in Bangladesh Amid Crisis

Australia's cricket captain Alyssa Healy believes that holding the women's T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in October may not be appropriate due to the nation's ongoing struggles with violence and political instability. Despite recent successful tours, Healy suggests prioritizing humanitarian needs over the cricket event, leaving the final decision to the ICC.

Australia's cricket captain Alyssa Healy has expressed concerns over holding the women's T20 World Cup in Bangladesh this October, citing the country's current struggles with violence and political instability.

The departure of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and appointment of Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus as interim chief has added to the tumultuous situation.

Healy argues that the crisis warrants prioritizing humanitarian aid over a sporting event, though the final decision rests with the International Cricket Council, which is expected to make a ruling soon.
