Can face face to face even further
In view of the India-Pakistan tension, the organizers needed to be prepared for such a situation in advance. India had already given information about not playing the match, but despite this, this fixer was kept. Now the cancellation of the match is facing problems for distributing points. India and Pakistan can also be clashed in the final. However, all this will depend on the points table and again on the results of both teams in the semi -finals.
Pakistan team owner statement
At the same time, when Kamil Khan, the owner of Pakistan Champions, was asked about the future of the tournament, he said that WCL will continue according to the schedule, which will not change further. He further said that if both teams are face to face again in the knockout, WCL may need to take steps. Kamil said- all the remaining matches are happening. The tournament is taking place as per the predetermined schedule and there is no change. As far as the semi -finals and finals are concerned, if we make it to the semi -finals, there will be four teams and we will avoid matches between the two teams.
Kamil confirmed that his team would be given two points as the Indian team withdrew the name from the match. He said, 'If we reach the finals, then a decision in relation to it will be taken only. And as far as this match is concerned, we will be given two marks and according to the rules we are entitled to these digits. However, this may be disputed, as India had already informed the organizers not to play against Pakistan.
Brett Lee's response to the case
At the same time, former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee has also reacted regarding this match. When Lee was asked his views about the cancellation of the match between the two staunch rivals, he called it a difficult question and remained neutral in his reply. He said, 'This is a difficult question. But I want to say that I love India, I also love Pakistan. So I hope they can reach the situation where they can appreciate themselves. But the most important thing is that we have come here for a tournament. So Australia vs India vs South Africa ... We are all inclusive. '
Dhawan shared email
Earlier, Shikhar Dhawan shared an email written to the organizers of the tournament, stating that the organizers were conveyed to the decision not to play from Pakistan on 11 May itself. Email states that the decision not to play with Pakistan was taken in view of the current geopolitical situation. Dhawan said in his post on X, 'I am standing the same on the steps taken on May 11. My country is everything for me, and nothing is more than the country.
