I just visited and saw the latest thread with the Taliban banning all IPL games because there are girls dancing and bare-haired women in the crowds.

Meh, the Pakistani posters here have been more than gracious. We don’t drag in en masse the views of random ICFers or NZ talksport callers or Bigfooty posters to bash here in similar situations.
Considering that, It’s enough to criticise the stupid statements of the PCB and Pakistan players without searching for the views of the most toxic one-eyed internet fans and sticking in the boot to Pakistani fans IMO.
Also suggest that we empathise with the Pakistani fans on CW (and in general) a bit IMO who are not to blame at all for this as much as you and I and for whom this news absolutely ****ing sucks.

Fair enough, mea culpa. The Pak fans on CW are good people. Taking down the post.
Internet posters will be internet posters, no need to expect decorum across the board there.
But in regards to the Pakistan Cricket Board chairman, no less, just absolutely outrageous. I can't get over how reckless and idiotic his comments have been. Cricinfo are being very naughty as well, citing COVID bubble fatigue as one of the reasons, which is not actually true at all.

Perhaps he just realized his error and redacted accordingly.

This is not cricket at all, this is racism in it's new form. My wholehearted support for PAK cricket and people - there has to be an end of this farce. All that was achieved in 12 years had been blown away in 12 hours and I must say - it was well planed, and well executed as well. And, it's unfortunate that in these difficult times, there are people who are trying to earn their two minutes glory - guys we have differences, we have egos, we have emotions and we have memories ... but above all we are cricket fans and we are human - let's be with the suffering team, the fans, the board and the nation. May be we can't change the plot or proceedings, but that shouldn't get better of our good judgment, neither should it stop us from calling a spade is a spade.
New Zeeland is a small fly in this plot, but what ECB did today was ultimate punch below the belt. They cancelled a tour for less than 48 hours for two useless games, which are not even proper cricket, in a place where their Royals visited and funny enough played cricket just about a year back, but in the process they have buried everything that PCB earned over last 12 years. On top of that, I read they proposed an alternative venue, as if the purpose was to showcase the T20 skills and people of Pakistan were hankering for it. We can try to justify the call, but deep inside everyone knows, it was a back-stab, done deliberately to make things worse. I have read many theories in this regard and I know that SRL team was shot on PAK soil - but that was 12 years back, the situation was different, so were the scales.... we can't hang a dead body time and again for one crime and go in circles. Life has to go on - it didn't stop after Christchurch shooting or London bombing, why it has to be different every time for PAK?
