Bangladesh is set to host the forthcoming ICC board meeting in Dhaka. Additionally, there is a potential for the election of the International Cricket Council to take place there as well, as communicated by BCB President Nazmul Hassan.

"It has been confirmed that the next ICC board meeting will be in Dhaka. Possibly, the election [ICC] would take place here," Hassan told reporters during an impromptu press conference at the secretariat on Sunday, as quoted by Cricbuzz.

He also mentioned that the election would involve selecting the chairperson considering the tenure of the current one coming to a close shortly, and that the official guidelines and authority was anticipated to be finalized by the BCB by then.

"I think there will be an election (in the ICC) as the current chairman will have the last board meeting. We are expected to give our election mandate by this time," stated Hassan.

Greg Barclay currently serves as the Chairman of the ICC. In November 2022, Barclay was re-elected unanimously for a second two-year term, which is set to conclude later this year. His maiden term began in November 2020, when he secured 11 out of 16 votes in the second round of voting, outpacing Imran Khwaja. Subsequent to his ascension to the ICC chairpersonship, Barclay resigned from his prior position as Chairman of New Zealand Cricket.

For us, the important thing is the Women's World Cup that we will host here: Nazmul Hasan

Just yesterday, reports had emerged casting some doubt on the execution of the forthcoming Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, scheduled for October this year, due to political instability. However, BCB Chief Executive Officer Nizamuddin Chowdhury expressed unwavering confidence that the tournament would proceed as planned.

Addressing the matter with the correspondents present, Hassan noted that during his attendance at the recently-concluded ICC meeting in Colombo, the situation in Bangladesh appeared dire, with a lack of external communication. However, he observed a shift in perception when foreign representatives saw him at the conference, which reassured them that the situation in Bangladesh was under control. Hassan emphasised that following that episode, no further discussions were necessary, and affirmed that for the BCB, ensuring the successful conduction of the Women’s 20-over World Cup remains the foremost priority.

"When I went there, the situation of the country was very bad and there was no communication with Bangladesh from outside and the news they were getting [was something] they were quite afraid [of]. But after seeing me, they said at least they were convinced that everything is alright in the country. After that, there was no discussion about it and all they wanted to know was what had happened. For us, the important thing is the Women's World Cup that we will host here," added Hassan.
