Jay Shah said, BCCI is not going to host the Women’s T20 World Cup

During a visit to the TOI Mumbai office on the eve of India’s 78th Independence Day the secretary of BCCI, Jay Shahhad, announced that the new state-of-the-art NCA will soon come up on the outskirts of Bengaluru in September.


He revealed that “we are going to make it available for Olympic sportspersons too, like Neeraj Chopra.” During a 15-minute presentation, followed by a 23-minute chat, he also announced plans for a cricket stadium in Varanasi and an NCA in six North-East states and the seventh one in Jammu.


After being asked by experts that the Champions Trophy comes later, but the Bangladesh series is upon us (Sept 19, Chennai). With the turmoil that the nation is currently experiencing, are there concerns?
In reply, Jay Shah said, None as of now. A new government has just been formed over there. They will surely reach out to us. If they do not, I will surely reach out to them. For us, the Bangladesh series is very important. We will try our best to host it.



When he was asked whether Bangladesh are also the hosts of the Women's T20 World Cup scheduled in October, with the security concerns there, are there any obligations for India to host it, considering that India is a neighbouring country?

Jay Shahs said, They had asked the BCCI if they could host the event, but I flatly refused. We would still be in the monsoon season, and next year, we are going to host the ODI women’s world cup. I don’t want to give the impression that I want to host consecutive world cups.
