ICC Rejects Bias Claims Amid Logostical Crisis, Cites Gulf Conflict For Flight Delays

By IANS News March 11, 2026 • 09:44 AM View: 278

The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has issued a formal response to the logistical crisis that has left few teams stranded in India following the conclusion of their 2026 T20 World Cup campaigns.

The ICC aimed at quelling rising frustrations among players and addressing allegations of preferential treatment, the governing body cited the "ongoing crisis across the Gulf region" as the sole cause for the travel delays.

Some of the teams remained stuck in India after the T20 World Cup campaign due to ongoing airspace restrictions in the wake of the conflict in the Middle East and West Asia.
