The Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) board has denied reports that they are considering hosting the 2024 Cricket World Cup. In a statement released today, the SLC clarified that they have not made any official bid to host the prestigious tournament. The rumors of Sri Lanka hosting the 2024 World Cup began circulating after reports surfaced that the International Cricket Council (ICC) was looking for potential hosts for the event. However, the SLC has stated that they are currently focused on other priorities and have not discussed the possibility of hosting the World Cup. While Sri Lanka has a rich cricketing history and has successfully hosted international tournaments in the past, including the 1996 World Cup, the SLC believes that they need to focus on developing their domestic cricket infrastructure before taking on such a major event. The SLC's decision to deny the reports comes as a disappointment to many cricket fans in Sri Lanka who were hoping to see the World Cup return to the island nation. However, the board's priority remains on improving the overall standard of cricket in the country and ensuring that they can compete at the highest level on the international stage. As of now, the host for the 2024 Cricket World Cup remains undecided, with several countries reportedly in the running to stage the tournament. While Sri Lanka may not be in the running this time around, fans can still look forward to exciting cricket action in the years to come.
