India-Pakistan matches are fixed, major allegations of fixing on ICC events schedule

Lloyd expressed his strong opposition to the practice of continually grouping India and Pakistan together at major events merely for the sake of show. India vs Pakistan (Image Credit- Twitter X) The bilateral cricket series between India and Pakistan has stopped since 2012-13. Due to political differences between India and Pakistan, both countries no longer play bilateral series. For the last 10 years, both teams have faced each other only in ICC events. In the ODI World Cup 2023, Pakistan came to India to participate in the tournament. But let us tell you that India never goes to Pakistan and their tournaments are played at neutral venues. The Champions Trophy will be played in the year 2025 which is to be hosted by Pakistan, but BCCI has proposed a neutral venue. But have you ever wondered why India and Pakistan remain in the same group in every ICC event. It is a matter of thought, let us tell you that there is a pattern behind this which has been cracked by former English cricketer and famous commentator David Lloyd. Are India vs Pakistan matches and full fixtures fixed? Lloyd expressed his strong opposition to the practice of continually grouping India and Pakistan together at major events simply for the sake of show. Along with this he has said that fixing is done in the fixtures. He also said that all the matches of India are scheduled during prime-time so that Indian fans can watch the matches comfortably. India has not played a single night match. Which he considers unfair to other teams. Along with this, he has said that some teams are being given 2-3 days time between matches while some teams are not able to rest properly even for 1 day. What he means to say is that ICC is deliberately making such schedules which are dangerous for cricket. Lloyd told talkSPORT. “You just talked about the freedom of fixtures. We talk a lot about fixing in cricket. But fixing does happen. Don’t just watch the match, manipulating the schedule to suit your own convenience is also a form of fixing.” “Fans are eager to watch a match between the two countries so we will make the fixtures accordingly, doing this is nothing but fixing. In this particular World Cup, you are just trying to manipulate. This is absolutely wrong.”

As soon as I went to the dressing room I saw that…: Mohammad Hafeez made a big revelation about his tenure

According to Hafiz, when players are playing for their country, they should know about every small thing. Mohammad Hafeez. (Photo Source: X(Twitter) Nothing has been going right for the Pakistan cricket team for some time now. Even in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 currently being played, the team failed to perform well and was eliminated from the group stage itself. The head coach of the Pakistan cricket team, Gary Kirsten, also made a big revelation about the team. Not only this, former Pakistani batsman Ahmed Shahzad also made a revelation about the Pakistan team. Recently, former Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez made a surprising statement in the Club Prairie Fire podcast by remembering the time when his tenure was going on in the team. He told that when he was serving as the director of the men’s team, during a test match, Mohammad Hafeez saw that four to five players were sleeping in the dressing room during Pakistan’s batting innings. He did not like this attitude of the team players at all. According to Hafeez, when the players are playing for their country, they should know about every small thing. This is because the contribution of every player is very important. Here is the video: Hafeez just told 4/5 players were sleeping in the middle of a test match, that’s 2 are batting so that’s 4/5 players awake. pic.twitter.com/74mJAozfuy — Zak (@Zakr1a) June 20, 2024 Mohammad Hafeez revealed on this podcast that, ‘When I came to the dressing room, I saw that four to five players were sleeping during the test match. I was stunned to see this. How can a player do this? If a player does this, then he should not be in the team. According to me, all the players should focus on the game because it is very important for the team to win the match.’ The Pakistan team had a disappointing performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan had to face defeat against the USA while the team also failed to win the match against India. Even though Pakistan won against Ireland and Canada, they failed to make it to the Super 8. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

Pakistan may have already defeated Canada and Ireland in the group stage, but the team could not secure its place in the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup 2024. Now a big report is coming from the Pakistan Cricket Board. According to the report, apart from about 34 players, support staff and officials who were part of the Pakistan team in the USA, 26 to 28 families of them are in the team hotel. According to reports, the families of senior cricketers like Shadab Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Aamir, Babar Azam and Haris Rauf also came to support them in this important tournament. Babar Azam is not married and his father, mother and brother were staying with him in the team hotel. According to the report, the source said, ‘Whatever extra expenses have been incurred will be borne by the players but due to the family members, the focus of the players is completely diverted. About 60 rooms were booked in which apart from the players, their family members were also present. The entire atmosphere was like a family and some players even went out for dinner with them.’ Mohammad Amir also took his personal trainer with him to the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 There are also reports that experienced fast bowler Mohammad Aamir had taken his personal trainer along with him. However, despite all this, the performance of the Pakistan team was quite poor. Now the Pakistan team has to tour Australia in November in which they have to play three ODIs and three T20 matches.
