After the ICC sent a letter about the india vs Pakistan T20 world cup game, Bangladesh didn’t hold back.
Basically , the ICC letter talked about how much money and attention that India Pakistan game gets. They see it as the main attraction . But Bangladesh Cricket Board ( BCB ) wasn’t feeling that.
Bangladesh shot back saying get that the india Pakistan game is a money maker , but the world cup shouldn’t only be about that one match. They think every team brings something important to the table.
Bangladesh thinks focussing too much on just one rivalry makes other games seem less important . They pointed out that all teams put a ton of effort into getting ready for these big tournaments . They deserve some love too.
Bangladesh also brought up that things should be fair. They reminded the icc that they shouldn’t plan things so that some teams feel like they’re just there to support india and Pakistan.
Bangladesh thinks the T20 world cup should show how many good teams there are. They’ve had some great wins against bug teams. They think focusing on just one rivalry hurts the growth of cricket around the globe.
Other cricket boards are kind of feeling the same way. They worry that they ICC is using the India Pakistan thing too much , instead of showing off other good matches.
For example , games with Bangladesh , Afghanistan , Sri lanka and other up and coming teams have been super exciting lately. Show those stories too.
Bangladesh isn’t saying the india Pakistan game isn’t a big deal. They get that it is a big deal , but they want the ICC to chill a bit. Don’t make it the only thing that matters.
They think focusing too much on just one game could hurt things , especially since the T20 world cup is supposed to get more people into cricket.
Bangladesh speaking up like this shows that smaller cricket countries are getting more confident in saying what they think. It also puts some pressure on the ICC to change how they do things.
As the T20 world cup gets closer everyone will be watching to see if the ICC changes how they talk about the tournament. Bangladesh has made their point clear.
If cricket wants to grow around the world , Bangladesh thinks it’s time to focus on everyone , not just a couple of teams.
