Afghanistan Cricket Team

Do they have any future now ?

We will have to wait and see. First comments from ACB seem to suggest they think so. 2 Afghan Paralympic athletes just pulled out the Paralympics though which isn't a good start.

I just hope that they don't have an owner like Papon

Another issue might be other countries boycotting them. Nothing about any of this positive. Gah

Afghan youth coming to BD was confirmed till yesterday. Not sure if its the case today

I thought the taliban were supportive of cricket...could have that completely wrong though

Womens team is done for but apparently they will "support" the mens team. The issue is, say, Australia or England (and others) won't play them because it will be indirectly a show of support for an oppressive regime

Think it might be an ICC requirement to have a Women's team

The International Cricket Council requires its 12 full members - of which Afghanistan is one - to have a national women's team.
