Pakistani fake propaganda factory think every like them spread fake propaganda.

I don't even expect Pakistan to accept the reality because they are Only believe in Fake Propaganda.

 

[rpant_gabba]

What do you want the ICC to do if Pakistan boycotts Feb 15 ?

I want Pakistan to boycott and as a consequence of that dilute and do away with ICC.

I want world cups to be once in four year events. More like 1 ODI every for years and 1 T20 WC every 2 years on an invite basis.

Do away with WTC. It’s a farce.

Bilateral cricket based on what countries can agree up on.

Let’s give that a shot for a decade. The ICC in its current form and geopolitical climate is not worth the bother. Resources can be put to better use in India instead funding cricket in Netherlands

But who would believe that we will follow through even if we agreed?

May I suggest an MOU to soidify that belief?

 

[U$ofA]

The BCCI made a $392mn surplus last year. They received $340mn in distributions from the ICC. Anyone who thinks this won't have an impact on the BCCI as well is deluding themselves.

Sure it will have an ipact on BCCI just like everyone else. It is more about how much will it hurt.

I believe BCCI is in a position to absorb any type of hit. More so than other boards.

 

[HitWicket]

THis is another test for you , go find out of 44 cr Record, from where this is came.

There is different between profit, hosting fees and broadcasting money

These idiots don't know anything. First read carefully everything

This is the BCCIs share of the tournaments profits. Their costs relating to the tournament are 10.69 crore. The suggestion they aren't taking a share of the profit is quite clearly a straight up lie.

Hosting the Asia Cup alone added over ₹100 crore to its earnings through hosting fees, media rights

Wow! What a find!

Dev will run a mile before confronting this.

Who's earnings are you referring to? The Asia cup makes a profit for the ACC. The ACC then distribute those profits out to it's members. The BCCI accounts show them taking their share of those profits.

What are you on about ?

The question was what consequences/sanctions should the PCB face for the boycott. You went off on some rant about ICC schedule.

Leave it. You never understand.

Ah, making up made up nonsense, getting called out for it with hard facts so then deflecting and running away? A PakPassion classic.

Paijaans overestimating their importance once again just like in the 2009 IPL auctions.

@Devadwal and Akash Chopra: "“In the history of Asia Cup, BCCI has never taken its share from the tournament. They have never even touched it."

Most people don't understand this completely and make baseless assertions. Essentially India and the BCCI have allowed a more even distribution of revenue at the ACC compared to the ICC.

- India takes only 15% of the ACC distribution. Essentially that allows all the ACC major cricket playing nations to draw an even 15% - India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. The remaining 25% is distributed to Affiliates
- However at the ICC level, India insists on a 38.5% share

Keep in mind that Indian broadcasters account for an even greater percentage of ACC's revenue than the ICC. At the ICC, the Jio deal comprises close to 80% of revenue. At the ACC, it's higher than 80% from the Sony Deal.

So while Akash Chopra is not completely right, he's not totally wrong either. The BCCI has deliberately chosen not to strongarm the ACC for various seasons - some altruistic, some not. It's unlikely to continue.

He is completely wrong though... He claimed they'd never even touched a share of the tournaments profits, when they quite clearly always have. The fact it's an equal share to the other full members (in the same way it was for ICC distributions until about a decade ago) is a completely different story and claim.

This kind of stuff is Chinese whispers. He probably read some vague, poorly written article that India is sacrificing it's share for Affiliates and interpreted it as completely giving up it's share. These cricketers are not finance nerds.

Why are you going around accusing the indian posters here of having Gandhi-Nehru-virus ? lol

Thanks for clarifying - here I was googling wth GNV was and getting all sorts of results

 

[rpant_gabba]

What are you on about ?

The question was what consequences/sanctions should the PCB face for the boycott. You went off on some rant about ICC schedule.

At a ICC level,

1) ban Pak from WC26 and deny them all ICC funds for 2026. It’s an easy case legally. Part events will have little direct impact as terms of the contract and situations and reasons are vastly different.

2) Put PCB membership up for a vote.

BCCI level

1) avoid PCB at all levels.

2) make boards and players choose between BCCI and PCb

 

[Dr_Bassim]

0.5 billion USD from one game, Inds have already gone crazy. Their media has gone absolutely ballistic which is funny considering all the big talk was coming from them earlier. The nodders here who claimed India-Pakistan is not a rivalry are suddenly very interested. After a long time we have summoned the will to go for the jugular and every cricket fan not just Pak should be backing it. @Savak @DRsohail @Dr_Bassim spreading BCCI propaganda should be ignored.

I am not sure why you mentioned me.

I have nothing against boycott but I would see if they boycott the semi final or final vs India or is this just showboating ?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pakistan should deal with this in a smart and practical way, not emotionally. The government and PCB should clearly put Pakistan’s position on record with the ICC, follow the rules, and ask for equal treatment. At the same time, they should avoid making loud political statements that only hurt Pakistan more.

If India or BCCI uses politics to forfeit games, Pakistan should let the ICC handle it and expose the double standards professionally. Play cricket wherever possible, strengthen ties with other boards, and focus on improving the team’s performance. In the long run, strong cricket and consistency will speak louder than walkovers and statements.

You suspended bilateral cricket in 2008…. So why are you complaining today when Pakistan suspends ICC games?

That’s what they have done in the past and will do in the present

But they know that nobody listened in the past and will not listen in the present either

IMO Pakistan should just continue with its current, no nonsense mood. Let’s just get out of ICC after this tournament or even if they want us to get out now.

 

[Rana]

Pata nahi kis dunya main rehte ho bro.

None of this will happen. Let Pakistan government /Naqvi/Munir do their thing. They will handle it in their way.

It’s pointless speaking to the ICC because:

1. The ICC Chairman is Indian.
2. The ICC and its members only respond to financial interests.

The best strategy is to hit them where it hurts most.

Hum to doobenge sanam, tum ko bhi le doobenge that seems to be the only way forward.

When icc and its members will know its going to effect them too thats when they will take pcb serious

By now pakistan would have been kicked out if it didn't effect the other boards and the icc but because it does icc is running around and doing back channel talks

I get the frustration and there’s some truth in what you’re saying as money is the language the ICC understands, and pressure only works when it affects everyone, not just Pakistan. That’s reality.

But going full “hum doobenge…” is risky. If Pakistan only plays the burn the house down card, we might hurt ourselves more than the system. The ICC won’t suddenly become fair out of fear; they’ll just look for ways to isolate PCB further if the moral high ground is lost.

A smarter approach is balance. Yes, apply pressure where it hurts financially, but at the same time keep engaging, building alliances, and forcing the ICC to deal with Pakistan as a stakeholder, not a troublemaker. Back channel talks are happening because Pakistan still matters and that leverage should be used carefully, not wasted.

Pakistan hasn’t been kicked out precisely because the system needs us too. The goal shouldn’t be mutual destruction, but making sure the cost of ignoring PCB is higher than the cost of listening. Pressure plus strategy beats anger alone.

I get you but government pressure may create noise, but it doesn’t automatically translate into long-term fairness for Pakistan cricket.

The smarter path is using both fronts: keep pushing the issue formally through the ICC to keep the record clean, and apply pressure where it actually works.

Excellent post. To take it in a wider world context, do what Canada's been doing if you're feeling so aggrieved with India as Canada's been feeling with the US.

Yes the US (and specifically Trump) have been insulting and marginalising them but they haven't burnt their bridges. Carney's been speaking up - smartly and fearlessly at important forums, building alliances with other middle powers, preparing for the worst but living with things as they are in the real world without losing their self-respect.

Pakistan's actions would've been the equivalent of Canada throwing their toys out of the pram when Trump called them a 51st state and refusing to Trade with US. Mutual suicide pact so to say.
