The International Cricket Council (ICC) has sparked another controversy after sharing an illustration for the next year’s T20 World Cup in India without Pakistan’s representation.
The illustration includes cricketers from almost all countries participating in the 2021 T20 World Cup except Pakistan. Zimbabwe and UAE, which aren’t even participating in the tournament, have their representation, which questions ICC’s intent in sharing the artwork.
