The future of Bangladeshi cricketers now depends on God? Dark clouds looming over T20 World Cup increase tension

News India Live, Digital Desk: The current situation of Bangladesh is not hidden from anyone. Whatever is happening on the streets there, its shadow has now fallen on the most popular sport there, cricket. The latest situation is that players are more concerned about their safety and the reputation of the country than about their training and games.

Why was there a need for a meeting?
In fact, the ICC and the whole world are in a dilemma whether Bangladesh will be able to host the T20 World Cup in the current circumstances? And the bigger question is whether Bangladesh team will be able to play in this tournament? Amidst these questions, the players of the team have called a meeting with the National Sports Advisor (Asif Mahmood). These players want to understand what is the attitude of the current government and sports boards towards them and the organization of the tournament.

It’s not just a matter of playing, it’s a question of respect
World Cup is the biggest dream for any athlete. But when conditions at home worsen, it becomes impossible to concentrate on batting and bowling. Players fear that they may lose the opportunity to play on a big stage due to political turmoil and security reasons. If reports are to be believed, the players are also afraid that the country’s cricket board does not have any clear plan at present.

ICC’s close watch
The eyes of the world are currently fixed on Bangladesh. If the hosting of the tournament is snatched away, it will be no less than a blow for Bangladesh cricket. One meaning of the players meeting the advisor is that they want the government to give full assurance of security and peace to the players, so that at least the shadow of politics does not fall on the game.

At present, everyone’s hopes are pinned on this meeting. This is indeed a sad period for cricket lovers, when administrative discussions have become dominant in place of the echoes of the field. Everyone wants that this battle of bat and ball should start again, so that the years of hard work of the players do not go in vain.
