Bangladeshi cricketers are having sleepless nights due to uncertainty surrounding their participation in the World Cup. The BCB has threatened to withdraw from the upcoming global tournament if their matches are not moved out of India.

You'll see that something or the other happens before every World Cup. I can say this from my experience of three World Cups: it has an impact."
