Should teams boycott Afghanistan at the ICC Champions Trophy? - BBC World Service

The Stumped team discuss whether boycotts in cricket work. Click here to subscribe to our channel 👉🏽 https://bbc.in/3VyyriM Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Charu Sharma are joined by Zimbabwe’s first black cricketer, Henry Olonga, as we ask whether boycotts work in cricket? It’s in light of political pressure on England and South Africa to pull out of their matches against Afghanistan’s men at next month's ICC Champions Trophy. It's due to the Taliban regime's oppression of women, which includes a ban on playing sport. Olonga, alongside Andy Flower, took a stand against Robert Mugabe’s regime by wearing a black armband in the 2003 World Cup game against Namibia. It was to symbolise "the death of democracy" in the country. Henry's been living in exile from Zimbabwe ever since and told the programme the current situation has echoes of 2003 and that the International Cricket Council and international Governments should be the ones making the decision not to play, rather than the players. 00:00 Introductions 01:25 Do boycotts in cricket work? 02:39 Henry Olonga interview 03:01 What was behind the black armband protest at the 2003 World Cup? 06:53 Should boycotts be engineered by the players, governing bodies or government? 10:36 Should teams boycott Afghanistan? 18:43 ICC statement 20:03 Goodbyes Listen to Stumped here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct...
