Will Afghanistan be out of T20 World Cup: ICC can ban if the team plays under the flag of Taliban, may also be out of the list of member countries


Posted on 23rd Sep 2021 01:50 pm by rohit kumar

The suspense remains regarding Afghanistan's play in the T20 World Cup to be held in October. The Taliban has taken over Afghanistan. Afghanistan's top cricket board officials have been removed from their posts and women's cricket has been banned following the Taliban occupation.

 

Naseebullah Haqqani has replaced Hamid Shinwani, executive director of the Afghanistan Cricket Board. In such a situation, if the Afghanistan team plays under the flag of the Taliban, then the International Cricket Council (ICC) can ban it.

 

An ICC official told the agency that it is too early to say anything about Afghanistan's playing in the T20 World Cup. The situation in Afghanistan is being monitored. In general, if the ICC bans a cricket board, it makes sure that the players are not affected by it. It is not the fault of the players.

 

will face opposition from other countries

 

According to ICC rules, players have to specify under which banner they want to play. If Afghan cricketers talk about playing under the Taliban banner, they will face opposition, as other countries apart from Pakistan will not be in favor of it. In such a situation, the ICC can not only ban Afghanistan from playing but can also exclude it from the list of 8 member countries of cricket.

 

Afghanistan included in 8 teams playing in the main draw including India

The T20 World Cup will start on October 17 in the UAE and Oman, while the final will be played on November 14. It was to be organized in India, but due to Corona, its location had to be changed. Now it is being done in UAE and Oman under the banner of the Board of Control for Cricket in India. Afghanistan is among the eight teams that will play in the main draw along with India, Australia, Pakistan, New Zealand, South Africa, England, and West Indies. Afghanistan is to play in Group 2 along with India, Pakistan, and New Zealand.

 

Taliban has already violated ICC rules

The Taliban have already violated ICC rules by banning women's cricket in Afghanistan. According to the rules of the ICC, it is necessary to have a men's and women's team of the member countries. Ever since the ban on women's cricket in Afghanistan, other ICC countries have been demanding a ban on Afghanistan. The Australian Cricket Board has also warned of the cancellation of the only Test match against Afghanistan to be held this year.
