The 2014 ICC World Twenty20 tournament will be held in 2014 in Bangladesh. Bangladesh will host the tournament as announced by the International Cricket Council in 2014. It will be second and consecutive time that an Asian country will host this event (previous - Sri Lanka).
On 6 April, 2013 the ICC unveiled the logo of the tournament. The logo uses the colours of the Bangladesh flag with splashes of blue representing the country's iconic waterways (also as being the ICC's own colour). The T is made up of cricket stumps and the "0" in the T20 represents the cricket ball complete with Bangladeshi green seam while the white in the design lends an energetic, friendly and youthful feel to the logo.
