[Rifat_02]

A general thread for news related to world cup.

It seems no umpires from India in this world cup.

আইসিসির এলিট প্যানেলে তালিকাভুক্ত আম্পায়ার সুন্দারাম রবিকে বিশ্বকাপের দায়িত্ব থেকে বাদ দেয়া হয়েছে। সুন্দারাম রবি ভারতের প্রতিনিধিত্বকারী একমাত্র আম্পায়ার ছিলেন এবারের বিশ্বকাপে। তবে সাম্প্রতিক সময়ের কিছু ঘটনার জের ধরে ক্রিকেটের নিয়ন্ত্রক সংস্থা সিদ্ধান্ত নিয়েছে সুন্দারামকে এলিট প্যানেল থেকে অব্যাহতি দেয়ার। অথচ আসন্ন ইংল্যান্ড ও ওয়েলস বিশ্বকাপে ম্যাচ পরিচালনার দায়িত্ব পাওয়া ১৬ জনের মধ্যে একজন ছিলেন এই ভারতীয় এই আম্পায়ার

Anyone will create a Fantasy tournament?

Alex Hale's dropped after failing drug test. Why in the world is this moron experimenting with drugs when you know that you're a important player for your team

Chris Gayle appointed vice captain for windies for WC. I hope he does well in what is most likely his last WC

What has taskin done recently to deserve that? Not saying that the other guy is any better but i haven't seen taskin do anything significant

[ahnaf]

^ Well he cried like a proper man. Nothing can beat that.

[BengaliPagol]

wat a dog move if the news is correct.

I have a feeling that the selectors are entertaining the idea of replacing Mustafizur from the XI with Taskin because Taskin is a "wicket taker".

[Yankees]

doesnt seem to be any reports confirming this. any update?

[Ishmumislam]

England and icc uses super soakers even without any rain for days ..then uses airport runway quality steamrollers. i would have picked taskin plunkett over jayed anderson... and the specialist offie over mithun or liton

Can't beat that argument lmaoo

You really thought they would fly him out of the country on a World Cup team for a full month just to play an extended European warmup.... and send him back home to watch the World Cup from home?

So naive. So naive

If you think about it, BCB simply used Rahi as a placeholder for Taskin until they were certain he was fit. They had to declare a squad by a certain date so they picked up someone no one would complain about if they had to be sent back from the squad.

How many of you are upset Rahi is out of the team? Exactly

tbh I am not upset that rahi is out and tashkin is in..its for the better. But i am really upset about the way it was done, after the bcb and tashkin drama.

Rahi did not deserve this

I second that. No one deserves this kind of crap. Not to mention didn't even get a game in the tri-series to deserve this

England got the most bland looking jersey.

[aklemalp]

Seems like they're trying up to up the iconic 1992 group photo at the Sydney Opera House/Harbor

[aklemalp]

I love that CWI decided to put 'West Indies' on out jersey, instead of 'Windies'.

Great move.
