Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has accused the ICC of extending undue support to India. Speaking on the Sama TV show, Shahid Afridi said, You saw how wet the ground was. But the inclination of ICC is towards India.
He wants to ensure that India reaches the semi-finals at any cost. The umpire was also the one who officiated during the India vs Pakistan match. It looks like he will get the best umpire award.
‘ICC Wants To Take India To Semi-Finals’
Shahid Afridi further said It had rained so much. But the game resumed soon after the break. It is evident that there were many things involved in the ICC, the match India was playing, and the pressure that comes with it, there are many factors involved.
But Liton Das’s batting was amazing. He played positive cricket. After six overs, we felt that if Bangladesh had not lost wickets for another 2-3 overs, they would have won the match. Overall the fight shown by Bangladesh was excellent.
Let us tell you that this reaction came to the fore when India defeated Bangladesh by five runs in the rain-interrupted T20 World Cup match. Batting first, India scored 184 in 20 overs. Chasing the target, Bangladesh gained a stronghold in the match thanks to Liton Das’s half-century in 21 balls.
However, rain interrupted the game after Bangladesh reached 66/0 in seven overs. After which Bangladesh got a revised target of 151 runs in 16 overs. In such a situation, Pakistani fans believe that despite the pitch being wet due to rain, the ICC deliberately started the match because if the match does not start again, then India will lose this match.
