Nigar Sultana, the captain of the Bangladesh women's cricket team, has expressed her disappointment regarding the recent decision to relocate the 2024 Women's T20 World Cup from Bangladesh to the United Arab Emirates, adding that this change in venue has deprived her team of the opportunity to compete in a major international tournament on their home turf, with the support of their passionate fans.
"For the last two days I was really sad and today I seemed a bit free because a lot of people tried to make me understand (the switch) in different ways. To be honest I was really hurt," Nigar was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz, while talking to reporters at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.
