The Indian cricket board has specified that it will bring clarification to the issues affecting the players’ visas in advance to the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup planned to be held in India this October.
Based on a statement by the International Cricket Council (ICC) Board, after some virtual sessions, the Board “received an update on the ongoing preparations” around the tournament.
“This included an update from the BCCI on positive discussions with the Indian government around tax arrangements and visa guarantees.
“It is anticipated that both issues will be resolved over the next month.”
Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ehsan Mani has requested the ICC for the assurance of visas for its players and support staff upon the arrival of the tournament.
“The cricket committee had an excellent discussion around umpire’s call and analysed its use extensively,” Kumble said.
“The principle underpinning DRS was to correct clear errors in the game whilst ensuring the role of the umpire as the decision maker on the field of play was preserved, bearing in mind the element of prediction involved with the technology.
“Umpire’s call allows that to happen, which is why it is important it remains.”
