ECB can throw ZCB out of t20 World Cup

[gattaca]

So ECB had thrown zcb out of worldcup. BCCI and GOI couldn’t do that for Pakistan ever ? We have hosted them in 2011 not far from 2008 attacks. Is it just business for BCCI and GOI ? 

[mishra]

Exactly. How many times i have said this. Put it to ICC. Plain and simple. We wont play, we wont host Pakistan. Let them deal with it. 

Not our problem

When was this? Why did they throw them out?

[CSK Fan]

The OP post is so cryptic. what is ZCB? Zimbabwe? How did ECB throw them out. What on earth are they talking about? which year?

The ball is in our court, do we want cricket more or peace in India? Cricket vs lives of soldiers!

In early January 2008, speculation arose that the tournament could be held elsewhere as the British government have banned Zimbabwe from touring England in 2009. However, it was later confirmed that the tournament would definitely take place in the country.

However, in July 2008 Zimbabwe, under pressure from South Africa and England over political matters related to Robert Mugabe, pulled out of the tournament of their own volition, creating an additional space for an associate nation.

So Zimbabwe pulled out through their own choice and there was serious discussions if they didn't after it was declared the team would be unlikely to be able to get visas. Hardly 'throwing them out'.

So you're ignoring the fact that the British govt virtually boycotted Zimbabwe anywhere & everywhere, not to mention there were intl sanctions including the one by US & EU & this was over the atrocities in Zim?

 

I guess you're from the school of though that (cricket) diplomacy & terror go hand in hand & so long as we keep playing them (hopefully) one day Pak will turn around a new leaf, just like that!

They were decent enough to pull out, knowing what they did - do you see any modicum of decency in terroristan or their BFF China?

This was 2009 t20 worldcup. They threw Zimbabwe out because of attrocities of mugabe government against whites.

Hmm trying to see how many here even know this incident looks like not many even the padosi in uk. Yes this was Zimbabwe that was thrown out of 2009 t20 worldcup for attrocities of mugabe government for taking over white people properties. The UK government said they would deny visas to Zimbabwe and the ECB and ICC forced them to withdraw.

Surprisingly mate your conspiracy theory is not general knowledge.

It’s published in websites I don’t understand if you don’t read how is it conspiracy ? There were three days of negotiations between ZCB, ECB, ICC. Only Asian countries supported ZCB.

Zimbabwe withdrew from the world cup because the UK government had intimated they would not issue visa's to the players because of the UK governments dispute with Zimbabwe !!.

If Zimbabwe had participated they would have to shift the tournament out of UK. That would mean looses to sponsors and ECB.

Doesn't alter the fact that the UK government instructed the ECB that because of  Mugabe involved with Zimbabwe cricket the team would not be getting into the country as a test and odi series had already been cancelled. 

Or the fact that Zimbabwe withdrew from competition but retained test status. 

They couldn't participate if they weren't getting into the country , could they?

The attrocities by Zimb government were real unlike mere allegations by India against Pakistan. Go to international court with concrete proofs and if proven guilty then talk about kicking Pakistan out of ICC. On the contrary, Pakistan can also ask ICC to kick out India based on attrocities by India in occupied Kashmir which are well documented.

why are you hosting all bad guys in your country ? India has provided so many proofs yet nothing happens from your government and military. can you even ask you military and government about that ? Do you want to say Pakistan is a victim as well like most pakistanis do ? Your deeds are documented by India, Iran and Afganistan. Why do three countries feel pakistan is bad ? or is this just a conspiracy ?
