What's new

After Asia Cup politics, India-Pakistan games should no longer be ‘arranged’ at ICC events, suggests Michael Atherton

Hence why I said: they just can't say anything cause India feeds ICC most of it's revenue.

They see the injustice, but won't push back because of money. everyone is greedy. Pretty sure most people who talks smack here would also zip it and take the $ too and look the other way.
Reality/Real world. $$$$ talks. Almost always. You live with the choices you make.
 
but also elevated the game of cricket so it became surrounded by crazy patriotism and nationalism. Now we got to a point that Indians can't resist playing and watching the sport but they want to do it in an unsportsmanlike way.

You must have a really short memory because in the 80s and 90s players houses were being stoned and crowds were disrupting matches.

Some twitter posts is nothing compared to that, today there is way less nationalism and craziness among fans. Social media randos are no indication.
 

T20 World Cup: India-Pakistan in Colombo likely on Feb 15, Mumbai and Ahmedabad for semi-final and final​


India will open their T20 World Cup campaign against the USA, while their match against Pakistan is likely on February 15 in Colombo, RevSportz understands. As per the tentative schedule, the 2026 T20 World Cup, co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka, will be played from February 7 to March 8. The India-Pakistan game will be a high-profile affair, notwithstanding the lopsided nature of the contest, with geopolitics involved.

It is learnt that Mumbai is likely to host a semi-final on March 5, while the final is in Ahmedabad on March 8. If Pakistan qualify for the semi-final, they will play in Colombo. For Sri Lanka, too, if they get to the last four, they will play at home.

It needs to be seen what happens, in terms of venue, if Pakistan reach the final. India and Pakistan have decided to play their matches in multi-nation events at neutral venues during the current rights cycle.

 
Another farce coming up. I hope it gets rained out.

Sports should be kept away from pathetic tantrums of India and Pakistan
 
Another chance for India to win the war unless war gets abandoned due to rain… hope so
