ICC now Indian Cricket Council, says president International Cricket Council (ICC), world cricket regulator, has apparently become the Indian Cricket Council, said the organisation's president echoing the frustration of Bangladeshi cricket fans in the wake of India’s victory. Bangladeshi fans alleged that the umpire's controversial decisions proved to play a crucial role behind the defeat of their team in the quarter final match, which many had dubbed as David vs Goliath. After the match Bangladesh Planning Minister AHM Mustafa Kamal, also ICC president said on Thursday the ICC was not International Cricket Council anymore. "It has become Indian Cricket Council." The ICC president was shown on Shomoy TV, a private television station in Bangladesh, saying: “If needed, I will resign from the ICC.†He said: "One can be part of the ICC but not the Indian Cricket Council." Bangladesh will appeal to ICC against the controversial umpiring in the World Cup quarterfinal in Melbourne. The spirited men in green and red fell prey to umpiring injustice during the biggest game of Bangladesh cricket history. Rohit Sharma, the Indian opener was given not out in his 90's when he was caught deep in the field. Pakistani Umpire Aleem Dar was quick to rule out the delivery as no ball claiming that the ball was above the batsman’s waist. The swift decision surprised commentators Shane Warne and Harsha Bhogle who agreed that generally the umpires took a little more time on that decision. However, the replay confirmed that the ball was below the waist when the batsman played the stroke eventually going on to score a match winning 137. Tigers faced another horrendous decision when Mahmudullah, the man who had scored back to back centuries in previous matches, was given out caught on the boundary. Replays showed that the fielder [shikhar Dhawan] had touched the boundary board with his left foot just before throwing the ball up and stepping back into the field to catch it in a show to make it appear that the catch was good. TV umpire, Steve Davis gave the verdict in favour of fielder though. India sailed through to the World Cup semi-finals with an emphatic 109-run win over Bangladesh in a match that witnessed controversial decisions by the umpires. The Tigers managed to score 193, chasing 302 runs losing all wickets in 45 overs. - See more at: http://www.dhakatribune.com/cricket/2015/mar/19/icc-now-indian-cricket-council-says-president#sthash.7nxsjm9d.dpuf

This is the new world order, we own the ICC. So what if the umpires favour us? we bring in the most money . These lesser cricketing nations need to get used to it.

There should be an enquiry into Chris Jordan run out too. If the third umpire didnt give it out, Bangladesh wouldnt have made it into QFs. What say, ICC president ? Focking cry babies.
