Yeah, because India conducted an attack on a Pakistani military base, hotel or railway station...... This ignorance is ****ing pathetic!

Likewise, Zimbabwe, SL and Kenya never declined to play in England, Australia and New Zealand. So this is rubbish.
The other teams didn't control the money bag and therefore the game. Ridiculous state of affairs.
Don't recall any of those teams trying to bully the ICC or hosts to agree to a hybrid model...

Idiot. India is not bullying ICC.
It's the ICC and the other boards who are desperate to include India at all costs, so that they can make profits. Otherwise these boards will incur a massive cut in ICC revenues.
India will forfeit if tournament stays in Pakistan. So get your facts straight instead of uttering BS.

We straight up refused to travel there. If they can't manage a hybrid model, just ****ing play a tournament without us!!! Lol. I would prefer it that way anyways.

The best possible outcome from all these if the tournament does not happen at all. Pakistan can arrange nidhas trophy instead without india at all the renovated stadiums and declare themselves as true contender of the trophy. Its better tournament than champions trophy anyway.

If BCCI did that I'd definitely be against that (I have an instinctive dislike for the BCCI). But I don't think they are?

Yeah I don't think India really care if they end up playing this tournament or not lol. It's the other countries that really want them there to make it financially viable.

True bro its basically like a UN conference without United States of America
Pakistan had to be willing to pull out otherwise it's all just a charade
At this stage I don't think it's excessive for Pakistanis to effectively abdonon the sport, better to do it sooner than later
Stop tuning in, stop caring,stop watching with the family
Slow death to minnow status or decisive conscious effort to take ownership?
There is a choice.
India with it's power and psychological dispensation will just keep Pak on life support, it's not a sport worth bothering with under those terms, it's a communal battle

Mr. Glass
we accept your surrender
If only they had the good sense to
Though the psychological attachment will take time to break it's already happening for those that see an Indian controlled cricket is not worth the time for Pak sports fans, I guess find something else.

Its not that deep bro
Understandably, a reflexive reaction will be to just follow your usual instincts, that is to invest time into a sport and team you have always liked and a sport nationally important
But a dispassionate look at the direction of paks position and future within the sport is clearly marginal and at the behest of Indian dictat.
Pakistan is not fully unique in this , but NZ, sa, wi have other sports , paks national sport is cricket by a long way, and controlled by a historical and current nemesis.... So you tell me, where is the bright future?
