ICC said to suspend the male team of Afghanistan
In a letter from ICC, Human Rights Watch asked ICC to suspend Afghanistan to play international cricket until the conditions are better for women and girls across the country.
“We are writing at the moment to ask the International Cup of Cricket (ICC) to suspend the Taliban Afghanistan from the ICC membership and from participating in the international crime, until women and girls can once again participate in education and sports in the country,” the email said.
“We also invite the ICC to implement the policy of human rights on the basis of the principles of the United Nations for business and human rights. We also invite the ICC to implement the policy of human rights on the basis of the principles of the United Nations about business and human rights,” he added.
NGO reminded the ICC of their own regulations regarding the promotion of the female crunch. She also mentioned the aggravating situation of women in Afghanistan under the rule of Taliban in recent years.
“Please note that you have committed” to assign more resources to the Women’s Crite “during your mandate at the forefront of the global cricket and” primarily the ICC mission, further distributing more resources and attention to women’s crickets. “
“However, since in August 2021, the Taliban imposed a long and growing list of rules and policies forbidding women and girls to use their fundamental rights, including freedom of expression and movements, many forms of employment and education after sixth grade. These affect all their rights, including life’s work,” said, “
Human Rights Watch further blamed the ACB that he could not adhere to the ICC rules to promote the female crislette. It also recalled that the cricket was part of the following Olympic Games and not allow Afghan women to play sports, it was a serious violation.
“Not allowing women and girls to play crickets and do not allow the national team for women and girls to compete internationally, the Afghan Cricket Committee fails to comply with these policies against discrimination,” said Human Rights Watch.
“Please note that the cricket is included as a sport at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, and yet is a ban on Taliban for women and girls participating in sports serious violation of the Olympic Charter guarantee that” the practice of sports is human right, “he added.
The ICC is required to follow the steps of MOO -Au with this issue and take strict measures regarding the participation of Afghan women in the crisis. NGOs further invited the devotion to ICC to human rights regardless of the situation.
“The International Cauc Council should follow in the steps of other sports management bodies, such as the International Olympic Committee, urging the Taliban to include Afghan women and girls in sports and commit to working from human rights,” the letter concluded.
Female cricket in Afghanistan
The situation of the female crunch in the country is an unhappy but very sensitive question. Ever since the Talibani in 2021 took over the country, the situation has worsened for women. Many women even managed to escape from the country and live in exile.
Not only are sports, girls are also forbidden to educate themselves after sixth grade, which causes serious concern about their rights. Immediately before the Talibana regime took over power, ACB agreed to contract 25 female players.
Most of them contacted live players in Australia, and even participated in the exhibition match between the Afghan female XI and without the borders of XI at Junction oval in Melbourne.
Recently, ECB pressed Parliament in the country to boycott their match against Afghanistan in the champion trophy. However, the committee continued to play while England suffered a shocking defeat to worship from the tournament.
