These double standards working around the world for long time because we all know White people's dog is Tommy and our dog is dog so you can't stop this all just try to improve your education system and quality of life if you want to do some better.

When we have attack in Lahore all players and other officials were safe and just security persons killed during this all so just because of this they stop this all for Pakistan and now one person attacked in Masjid and kill many innocent peoples they are not calling this terrorism it's his individual effort really crap things happening in west, and they are attacking only third world poor countries specially Muslim countries because they know it's very important for future adventures.

It's not just about small boards it's also happening in many leagues, and now they have some better way as we all know recently too much noise about IPL as many matches were suspicious with presence of many wrong peoples in wrong places during matches but as we all know ICC is bling about this as they have some good deep pockets from this all, so they are not looking into this all and having all things against only small boards because they know it's all important for their system's success.

Right now, IPL and India is the biggest market for gamblers and bookies, so they are enjoying this all under supervision of ICC and BCCI and blame game is going against peoples like Brendon and few others those have nothing strong backup, and they are under strict laws faced some punishments as well.

Obviously you can't compare PCB with the pig-3 (BCCI, CA and ECB) in terms of revenues. But at the same time, the PSL has given the board a noticeable spike in net fund inflows. The competition is attracting a lot of talent from around the world and the TV ratings are also going up with every passing year. And this has happened despite all the woes associated with COVID. BTW, are you talking about the match between Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators? Lahore Qalandars didn't had any match yesterday.

West Indies didn't perform well in the previous few series. But they are doing very well against England in their home ground now. Probably this series isn't going to be easy for team India. However, India may get some advantages in their home conditions. The T20 series will be played in Eden Gardens, Kolkata. The boundaries are big in Eden Gardens, but it's a bit good for batsman. Indian team management should have kept Bumrah in the squad of T20 series. It would make their bowling lineup more stronger. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Axar Patel may show some good bowling figure. Anyway, India has won the both T20 and ODI series when West Indies visited in India for the last time.

ICC is never been an ideal sports organization it's run by England and Australia just for own sack and now as change of power happened and India is having power they are doing this all for their own sack so never expect any good and better thing from these members for others because we have some good number of things which are happening here politics personal likes and dislikes and own preferences are more important for all boards, and they are giving name of governments that they are not allowing about this.

We never have these concerns in other organizations because these are going with their strong system and policies for all which are much better and suitable for all members, not for just one or two.

Agree here just because of their behavior they are facing some issues but sadly no one talking about this even in CA they have no intention about this because they feel it's all OK and part of their system and game but if they are not going to stop this surely in next few years they can face some more concerns about this or may be players from Sub-Continent stop to join this league.

About duration, we all know surely it's one of the longest running league, and it's just because they have no enough time for doing this separately, so they are managing this during their test matches and other tour programs. Peter Siddle is also right in his views, but most chances his suggestion is not going to be had any worth as CA can't afford this and cut their profit.

I watched some of the matches live on FanCode and I need to say that the Dutch batting was extremely disappointing. The batsmen looked completely clueless (with the exception of Ackerman and Edwards). This time some of the senior batsmen were not available and the KNCB decided to give opportunity for younger players like Bas de Leede, Boris Gorlee and Saqib Zulfiqar. Unfortunately none of them became successful. Their bowlers did well, but they failed in the batting department.  And the captain (Pieter Seelaar) was a complete waste.

When Shashank Manohar was the ICC chairman, he added more voting members to the executive council, and this diluted the power of pig-3. The issue here is not the dominance of the pig-3, but the lack of unity among the remaining members. When New Zealand and England cancelled the Pakistan tour, how many of the other countries supported Pakistan? The same happened with South Africa as well. Tours were cancelled citing the COVID concern. They received zero support from the other members.

Peter Siddle has urged the Australian cricket board to shorten the BBL window. According to him, a lot of overseas players are turning down offers from the BBL, because it is the second longest franchise league (after the IPL). But I don't agree with his suggestion. The BBL is also one of the largest leagues, with 8 franchises (compared to 6 each for CPL and Hundred). If they cut down the duration, then the broadcasters are not going to be happy. If they want to attract overseas players, then they need to increase the salaries (which remains much lower than what they have in BPL or the PSL).

Today Afghanistan set a target of 254 on the board, as we know they dominated the game and won the match by 75 runs. Afghanistan complete a 3-0 ODI series win against Netherlands. Netherlands collapse badly after an outstanding partnership of 103 runs between Ackermann and Edward. Netherlands could win if continue their batting like opening batters but anyway congrats to Afghanistan as they all out Netherlands in just 179 runs.

Health should be the most priority in everything, there is a reason why they get stricter inisolation as well in implementation since the spread of covid is still present and possible. Setting records of winnings might be too impossible at this time of pandemic but still many players are trying to do what they can to prove themselves. We will see whether the olympic will be successful or whi will win.

Didn't see Hasnain bowling action (and not interested in BBL) so don't know what to make of Henrigues's comment but i did watch the SA vs India match.

Virat said “Focus on your team as well when they shine the ball eh, not just the opposition. Trying to catch people all the time,”

Personally i don't see any wrong in Virat's comment. He was indicating towards "Sand Paper Gate" and how broadcaster Supersport only follow opposition players, which is 99% true. Timing of comment was very wrong tho.

But overall i do agree with your post. PIG-3 players, especially Indian players gets only a slap on the wrist for any disciplinary breach.

It is strange that you are blaming Pant. Actually he did much better than the other batsmen. Scored a total of 101 runs from three matches and let's not forget the fact that he is the keeper as well. Rohit would have made a difference? I don't know, because Shikhar Dhawan was also in good touch as the opener (169 runs from 3 matches). KL Rahul failed, both as a captain and as a batsman. A lot was expected from Shreyas Iyer, but he couldn't live up to those expectations. But I would say that the batsmen did more or less OK. It was the bowlers who failed - especially Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Shardul Thakur and Ravichandran Ashwin.

The last over was completely a match turning. Required 30 runs out of 6 balls. First ball a wide, and the reball didn't bring a run. Second ball went for a four, third one again a four. Fourth ball once again a wide. Rest three went into sixes. The bowler might've experienced the peak pressure during the entire over.

Yes true i was very confident about India winning this match and Deepak chahar made it look as if India will easily clinch the game but after his wicket match looked dead. I am surprised to see india getting whitewashed by underdogs south africa, this is the Indian team that has to get ready for the world cup next year. Even though world cup is going to be on the home ground for India which is very favourable for them still I feel this team isn't really robust enough to fight in the world cup

To be honest it's only been one match and I am sure that England is going to learn from their mistakes and come back really strongly in the next match. But credit to west indies as they bowled really well tourist Street England to such a low total. But I believe this series is not going to be one-sided.

After taking the decision to retire from Test Cricket Quinton de Kock is in exceptional form in the ODI and he score a century in this match and they reached a total of 287 runs and it is going to be a huge task for the India batsman to reach the target. It all depends upon how the openers will perform as the middle order is the weakest and if the openers give a good opening, then there is chance they could chase this total.
