Are you missing Bangladesh in the ICC T20 World Cup 2026?

[Van_Sri]

Just to be clear, as an Indian fan I, and I think most Indian fans, are embarrassed by the unfair treatment of Fizz.

The expulsion shows only the arrogance, stupidity and sheer ineptitude of BCCI that they have sparked off a sports war.

Unfortunately Bangladesh’s extreme and emotional overreaction is something else altogether, and I won’t discuss it here because that debate already has attracted millions of words.

India’s special relationship with Bangladesh won’t easily be eroded, regardless of events. Here is a picture I recently took at Kolkata airport. It speaks volumes to that relationship. Yes Bangladesh is a foreign country but it still has a special status in India. Long may that continue.

Bangladesh should have been part of India

 

[Devadwal]

so they wont play bilateral series either?

Are you talking about India - Bangladesh bilateral series? Then answer is yes , india - Bangladesh will not play any series untill Bangladesh extremist government behaves properly.

I can see no india - Bangladesh series in next 2 year atleast.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Bangladesh should have been part of India

That’s nonsensical Imo.

They are a proud people, who want to guide their own destiny.

 

[Bhaijaan]

so they wont play bilateral series either?

Unlikely under current illegal regime unless it learns to behave.
Very likely once an elected government comes to power in Bangladesh which would be accountable for its actions.

In this tournament, the associate teams performed exceptionally well, putting up strong fights and causing upsets.
Bangladesh has no history of performing in ICC tournaments, apart from a few flukes.
They are lucky to have opted out otherwise; they could have lost to these associate teams.
Bangladesh exclusion has had no impact on this tournament, and no one cares.

I don't care if BD play here or not. I just didn't want BD to go to India and exactly that happened. So, I am happy.

We have 6 World Cups in 4 years anyway thanks to greedy BCCICC.

We are also happy that BD didn't go to India.

BD can do the noble thing and agree not to host any too frequent "loser BCCICC" WC's or tourneys... but then hypocrite jammatis want their cake and it eat it too...

No one is as obsessed with India as you are. Your post count suggests that. Calm down.

 

[Mesozoic]

Yeah I really miss them..

 

[SportsWarrior]

I missed them getting whooped, free points on offer, shenanigans from their fans, conspiracies after every pathetic loss, etc

Just look at how Zimbabwe is playing. BD in entire history of their pathetic existence haven’t been able to produce what Zim has done in the last couple of weeks. BD and their fans are a disgrace

 

[GLORY OF '92]

No

 

[jnaveen1980]

Going further and further into the tournament i say it is a blessing in disguise. Thank you BCB for that stunt.

 

[Varun]

Bangladesh aren't made for sport.

They should be auto-ejected from all tournaments today, tomorrow and forever.

[RedwoodOriginal]

We missed out on the El Classico - Bangladesh v Nepal

I would have backed Dipendra Singh Airee and the Nepalese to take that one home infront of their passionate fans in Mumbai

 

[Prince of Dorne]

The clowns that you see with BD flags in Pakpassion are actually supporters of Pakistan. Actual patriotic BD members like @MMHS, @Executioner etc. don't post anymore.

Google Hamza Choudhury.

He plays football in the English Premier League (something an Indian has never achieved).

Bangladeshis have moved on. Everybody has moved on other than the low-IQ bhakts.

I am a cricket purist. I don't even like T20 a lot. I enjoy Test and ODI more. I consider ODI WC as the only true WC; rest are all fillers.

Also, it is funny these bhakts try to insult me through a nationalistic angle. I am not a big nationalist; so, this strategy doesn't work on me.

Thankfully the awful interim government has gone and looks like common sense is prevailing. Overseas bitter Bangladeshis, who abandoned their country a long time ago, can cry all they want, but people actually living in Bangladesh have to live in the real world.

Nothing from this Jamat Jihadi should be taken seriously. If he keeps posting religious bait, let’s reply with the “jihadi” tag whenever he posts religious trolls. That’s a belt treatment.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh must not go to India for the next 20 years. After 20 years, things can be reassessed.

Till then, it's okay to miss a few WCs. ICC arranges 6 WCs every 4 years. So, missing 1 doesn't mean a lot.

World Cups have lost the meaning due to greedy BCCICC. We need English gentlemen/goras back in control of cricket. Make cricket great again.

 

[Josh]

As sweepy bhai said .. Bangladeshis are cricket purists, don't think they miss T20 world cup. If it was WTC or ODI world cup, it would have been a different matter

 

[BDfanforever]

You may not miss them, but ICC sure did which was why they called them in Lahore for "urgent" meeting. Otherwise, the way things are going this tournament ICC could've been in shambles. They could've been in worse situations had Nepal or USA held their nerves.

The ICC kicked out Bangladesh from the World T20 shows how much they missed minnows Bangladesh team

 

[Local.Dada]

To repeat the iconic statement by Yuvi and Harbhajan when speaking about Dhoni “Humey doodh me se makkhi ke jaisa nikaal diya”-

Also to repeat the iconic catchphrase of the Rock/ Dwayne Johnson- “know your role and shut your mouth”


Both iconic phrases applicable here

[DeadlyVenom]

Funny to see Indians criticise the looks and appearance of the Bangladeshi fans.

Bangadesh were missed a lot. One of the biggest countries in the sport decided to sit it out to avoid playing in India. It is truly a sad situation. Hopefully, it can be patched up, and Bangladesh will feel safe in India when the situation improves.

We can make fun of them too. They are from the land of many strange things. But, let's not lower ourselves down to their level I guess.

one of the biggest countries in the sport? By which parameter? Surely not in terms of achievements or wins?

Ahh by population, the same parameter that was used to ridicule India pre 2011 and b/w 2013-2024, funny now its being used to support BD.

Hypocrites as I said.

Look at it positively. Be happy for SCotland who looked way better even with gross under-preparation. Also "country" didn't sit out. I am not sure they took a vote in Bangaldesh to decide this. It is a decision one or two idiots at the BCB. Not sure how you can say entire country wanted this. Not even players were enthused about this decision.

I think East Pakistan should reconcile with West , we might see a better cricket team and stronger South Asian cricket also overall Asia cup will be much more competitive.

That was for PCT vs Ict revenue apparently.. BD not even being in the tournament shows they didn’t matter revenue wise.

If they are in the WC we are forced to watch at least when they are playing our team. Other than that I am not that bothered about them playing anywhere as I don't follow their cricket much. So yeah you are right, I don't watch them unless they are playing India.

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Didn't miss but would have been nice. Bd also could have caused few upsets and made it more interesting, instead of Oman maybe

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Only miss them in two aspect

- India thwacking them on the ground and

- BD vs SL in SL - dont care who wins, i would watch it for the 'Naagin' re-runs

 

[sweep_shot]

Bhakts claim to not miss Bangladesh but continue to talk about Bangladesh.

I guess they need constant attention/validation. We can call it a form of insecurity.

So that there are at least a few one sided games in favour of opposition team vs Bangladesh?
