PM Starmer Urges ICC Action Over Afghanistan Match

With Afghanistan set to face England in the Champions Trophy on 28 Feb, PM Keir Starmer has called on the ICC to uphold its rules and address the Taliban’s ban on women’s sports.

Over 160 UK politicians have demanded a boycott, citing the Taliban’s oppression of women. The ICC requires participating nations to have a women’s cricket program, which Afghanistan lacks under Taliban rule.

Piers Morgan, a well-known British television presenter, has called for England cricket officials to cancel the upcoming match between England and Afghanistan in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, citing the Taliban's intensifying oppression of Afghan women. Morgan took to social media to express his stance, emphasizing the ongoing denial of women's rights in Afghanistan and urging officials to take a firm stance against such actions. His comments come after Afghan cricket team members met with Taliban officials, including Sirajuddin Haqqani, leader of the Haqqani network, sparking widespread criticism. Critics argue that prominent players like Rashid Khan should speak out against the Taliban's actions and not associate with their officials. Afghanistan is participating in the Champions Trophy for the first time and is in Group B, alongside England, Australia, and South Africa. The match between England and Afghanistan is scheduled for February 26, 2025. Morgan stressed that the Taliban's restrictions on women in sports are unacceptable and called for decisive action.
