The ICC also noted the importance of preserving the integrity and sanctity of the tournament schedule, safeguarding the interests of all participating teams and fans, and avoiding the establishment of precedents that could undermine the neutrality and fairness of ICC events.

quite Rich coming that from ICC after precedent was actually set in last Feb to accomodate India
 
Well done, Bangladesh.

Job is not done yet. Have to escalate further. Drag it to CAS. Make it a long and painful process. :dav

Also, demand these things from BCCI:

- An unconditional and sincere apology for disrespecting Bangladesh.
- 5-match Test series home and away (away series must take place outside of India). Total of 10 Tests. All profits should go to Bangladesh.
- Get Bumrah tested for possibly illegal bowling action.

Also add a dozen checkered lungis for Younus to your wishlist while you are at it.
 
Am I the only one who is surprised by the level of, to put it mildly, rage on the both sides of this issue?

I'm connecting this reaction to surprise/relief at the outcome. Of course I could be wrong.

Wasn't the outcome always on the cards? If you were expecting a different outcome, can you provide the reasoning? not why it should have been the outcome.

The power of BCCI at ICC has been solidified in may critical decisions.

IMO, 2 events stand out.

Imran Khawaja: In spite of shenanigans by Shashank to pot up a non name clown as head of ICC, it got shut down so badly, it wasn't even funny


Then there is the 2023 revenue distribution. By every possible metric, it dwarfed the "Big 3" and the rest ofteh boards fell inline with barely a whimper, other than the usual lip service from PCB.

given this, why exactly is the level of rage here?

BCB will cease to exist or BCCI will place a “Dhurandhar” to run it. Only 2 outcomes.:inti Paperless man and copy paste man can spray whatever nonsense they want all over the forum, hum maze lootenge bas 😭

Kuch nahi milega, 👍
 
Scotland at the T20 world cup should be an exciting occasion but it all feels very holo at present. Don't think it'll make much difference in Scotland though, 95% of the population will continue without even being aware we've got a team playing international cricket.

I really feel sorry for Bangladesh but sadly for them all cricket is controlled by India and there's nothing anyone can do.
 
So good news for BD fans is that we don't have to watch bunch of BD vs Zim, BD vs IRE, or BD vs Afg matches any time soon in the near future.

Sri Lanka with its political instability and some Tamil issues is really also not far away from being blacklisted by BCCI.

Thats not the discussion here why animosity exists

BD security situation also arises from same political animosity.

Millions of Illegal BD in India has nothing to do with it. BD's National team can be subject to political hatred which was displayed by kicking out Mustafiz from IPL team. So you cant say India's Security concerns were fair and BD's not

If there was a general hatred for BD then these illegals would be the most easy targets than the BD Cricket team. But Its quite fascinating to see how the victim mentality Of Muslims works in general.

No one said its General Hatred. Indian Journalist Vikrant Gupta Visited Lahore before CT 2025 and he was perfectly safe. So Argument can be made why not Indian team? it was Specifically communicated by Indians that ICT as a group is more vulnerable to Alleged threats they face in Pakistan. Its quite a fascinating that in a mirroring situation , bigotry of Indians come to fore like that and they will try to justify how their refusal to tour Pak for CT is fair and BD's not
 
On a serious cricketing note, this was probably Bangladesh’s best shot to get to at least semis in WT20 . Tournament is held in subcontinent conditions, it would suit their spinners and batsmen and they also have decent seamers. Afghan, Pak, SL, Bang are more or less in the same ball park in these conditions. Catch a couple of gora teams or if super lucky even India on an off day and who knows. They blew a great opportunity here.

2027 WC in SA 🤣 let’s see how far Bangladesh will get in those conditions.

Having said that foolish decision from a cricketing perspective.
 
No matter how much Indians pretend, they were indeed shocked to see BCB's perseverance. All they were expecting a U-turn from them at the very last moment to ultimately become a laughing stock for others.

Good move, it sets a good precedent and those who thing BCB will pay dearly for it are mistaken as whatever Indian propaganda media tries to project they never pulled out or boycott but instead were sidelined by ICCBCCI themselves

Ishtiaque Sadeque resigns as BCB director​


Ishtiaque Sadeque, on Saturday, resigned as a director of the Bangladesh Cricket Board. The BCB's game development committee chairman tendered his resignation to cricket's governing body in the country, citing family reasons for his decision.

"It is true that I am resigning. I believe that I am unable to dedicate the time required for such a large community like Game Development, where I am currently serving, because of my family and personal commitments. I cannot provide the effort necessary to accelerate Game Development. For this reason, I feel a personal sense of regret that I am not doing justice to this position. That is why I am resigning from here," Ishtiaque told Cricbuz on Saturday.

"The claim that I am leaving because of any misunderstanding, relationship issues with anyone on this board, or due to any hurt feelings or grievances, is completely false. Everyone who was with me tried their best in their own way," he said.

"I believe that whoever succeeds me in Game Development will be able to take Bangladesh's cricket forward. They have my full support. Even though I will no longer be on the board-I mean, they will have my complete support. Thank you very much, " he added

Ishtiaque, as one of the closest ally of Aminul, came to the board during the last election. It remains to be seen if his resignation will follow the walking out of some other directors as well.

Yes we expected them to be like Pak cricket board. Take that as a compliment though. Most people in Pak board are all probably friends and family and look out for the $$$, so they kind of have that accountability.

Bangladesh on the other hand is like kamikaze, this way or that way regardless of consequence. However, that’s not always a good thing.

So you have a point.

You are a glass half full guy aren't you :) Trying to present a disaster into some kind of achievement, and creating an artificial worry on behalf of Indians :)

I want them to be more resolute. With zero quarrells, fights,animosity between two countries i never liked the idea of playing Bangladesh given that they refuse to come out of tier 2 standard. They need some relegation. This is good. In the last 2 years
Bangladesh across formats have played


19 against SL
14 against Windies
11 against Afghanistan
9 against Pakistan
8 against India
7 against zimbabwe
5 against Ireland
4 against Netherlands.

Look at the odd man in the list. India. If you remove that it will be tier 2 clashes.

You guys have lost a big chunk of IPL viewership already on top of lesser eyeballs for upcoming WC. The quality will definitely further regress for Indian leg, given BD were a strong side in T20I and most importantly all over the world you have Garnered bad will. But that's ok and a new normal for you guys who claim to be USA of cricket.

Let the facts sink in later
