[Cover Drive Six]

Which average players?

Players like Gurbaz, Hetmyer, Livingstone, Fraser-McGurk, Mujeeb, and Tom Curran, along with many domestic players. never seen them perform well.

I am fearing the PCB and PSL franchises will go with a begging bowl to the Afghanistan players and ask them to make themselves available for the PSL.

I dont think a ban has actually been confirmed by any reputable source.

No harm in selecting their players.

I would demand an apology from them for their anti Pakistan statements before allowing them entry. Do you think any foreign player making anti India statements would be accepted by the IPL?

have these available players made anti-Pakistani statements?

If they have openly then yes it will be difficult to select them.

 

[SportsWarrior]

Agree.

Cricket was lovely when England was controlling it.

It became unstable after ICC became BCCICC.

whether you su*k up to white master or brown master your team will be perpetual minnows..

Refreshing to see that Pak posters rightly criticised this move. I am just comparing this with Fizz’s incident where ind posters (most) lack the guts to criticise even their cricket board.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Completely agree.

If this is true ( again I have my doubts) it makes a mockery of Pakistan's don't politicise cricket stance that we claim to have held over the years.

How can we with a straight face say it's discrimination that our players are not being selected in Indian leagues.

Blanket ban is not the answer. Rather, playing together can defuse any tensions.

@nish_mate brother you mentioned straight face bro here is your proof my face is straight

So mujeeb is part of the draft. No wonder the indians have shut up

It turns out there was no ban on Afghan players in PSL. It was just media speculation during the recent Pakistan-Afghanistan conflict.

What's interesting though is how Indians have an issue hosting Bangladeshi cricketers in IPL due to Hindu mistreatment in Bangladesh - yet Afghan cricketers will receive red carpet despite a literal Hindu genocide in Afghanistan.

But apparently only Pakistanis are guilty of selective tear shedding.
