ANALYSIS: ICC to decide fate of Afghanistan women's team without speaking to a single player

Once the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in August 2021, women were prevented from playing cricket and all other sport. The 25 already-contracted players had their payments stopped, and they fled the country after receiving threats and fearing for their future.

The ACB received more than $50 million from the ICC in the past round of funding, which was presumably to be invested in both the men's and women's game. In December 2022, the women's team wrote to the chairmen of the ICC and the ACB, asking for clarification of their situation.

Don't want to upset the Taliban?

Given the ICC is in the news at the moment (International Criminal Court) do you think it wise to use the Cricket ICC abbreviation?

ICC to investigate war crimes in Ukraine without speaking to a single ethnic Russian. See how this works, TheirABC?

Let's hope that this ICC is not as death and blind as ICC in Hague...

The caption for this photo in the article is “male dominated ICC board” - how about men ONLY ICC board ❓

Very male looking group

ICC useless buffoons! Where’s Bush’s Clinton’s and Obama’s arrest warrants!!! Hmm 🤔

What is a woman? How do you know these besuited & probably bepenised people aren't women? How do you know they're not identifying as women who play cricket in Afghanistan? This all sounds very transphobic™️ ABC! Check your privilege!

Business as usual.

The ABC hates women - so I’m sure you’d be happy with this.

‘Big and public step’: ICC issues arrest warrant for Vladimir PutinRepublican Strategist John Jordan says the International Criminal Court's decision to issue an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin is a 'big and public step'. “Whether or not he actually faces justice is one question, but this is going to have an effect throughout Russia,” he told Sky News Australia. “It’s a big step that basically means Putin can never leave the country”. What has Putin done to upset the game of cricket 🏏 Just keep provoking the leader of a sovereign state that has a larger nuclear arsenal than the rest of the world COMBINED. Oh, and is allied with 3rd largest nuclear arsenal and the world’s largest economy… Not too smart.
