T20 WC: Pakistan Were Bound To Make A U-turn Because Not Playing Would Have Caused Huge Losses: Madan Lal
T20 World Cup: Former India cricketer Madan Lal has criticised Pakistan’s handling of the India-Pakistan fixture controversy at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, stating that the country’s eventual decision to play the match was unavoidable due to financial and administrative pressures.
Reacting to Pakistan’s reversal after initially indicating it would not play the India match, Madan Lal said the decision was driven by the heavy losses Pakistan would have faced had it gone through with the boycott.
“Pakistan were bound to take a U-turn sooner or later. Because not playing would have caused Pakistan huge losses. On one hand, they would have had to pay fines, and then there was the question of whether the ICC would even allow them to play cricket or impose a ban for several years. Considering all these things, I think they made the right decision by agreeing to play the match against India,” Madan Lal told IANS.
