BCCI President Roger Binny lashed out at former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi over his remarks about ICC favouring Team India in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022.
Binny who was visibly angry over the comment said, ‘Not fair. I don’t think we’re favoured by the ICC. Everyone gets the same treatment. No way in which you can say that. What do we get different from other teams? India is a big powerhouse in cricket but we’re all treated the same.
Afridi’s comments came after India’s 5-run win over Bangladesh in a rain-curtailed match. The Men in Blue faced harsh criticism for a fake fielding incident during the game and the umpires during the game too, were called out for resuming the game quickly after the rain break.
‘You saw the ground how wet it was. But ICC is inclined towards India. They want to ensure India reaches the semi-finals at any cost, the former all-rounder had said.
