We are in touch with the government and board: Allardice
Days before the International Cricket Council (ICC) Board discusses Afghanistan’s status as a full member after the Taliban took over governance in the country, Geoff Allardice, acting CEO, ICC, said the new government has conveyed that it wouldn’t stop women’s cricket.
“They have said to us that women’s cricket will continue. They certainly haven’t given us an indication that it has stopped. Time will tell in terms of how that plays out,” said Allardice at an interaction with select mediapersons on Friday.
“We have been in regular communication with them from the time things changed in their country. We are hoping to have some meetings with their representatives.”
