International Cricket Council (ICC) ignored all Pakistani players as it did not include any player in any format while announcing ICC teams of the decade on Sunday. The decision shocked Pakistanis who responded with criticism on social media.

The ICC has selected individuals representing different cricketing nations on the basis of their performances to honor them with their inclusion in ‘ICC Team of the Decade’ for all three formats (ODI, Tests and T20I). What came as a disappointment for Pakistani cricket fans, was that no national player had been selected by the ICC.

Here are some Pakistanis reacting to ICC’s ”partiality” on Twitter

No Pakistani could make it to any #ICCTeamOfDecade despite
– winning the ICC champions trophy.
– remaining number one T20I side for a longest ever run.
– getting the ICC test mace and producing some memorable performances with red-ball.

No Pakistanis in the ICC Teams of the Decade actually makes sense.
The entire success of the Test team that got the Mace & t20 team that was number 1 for 2-3yrs was built around them being the rarest of things: teams that were greater than the sum of their parts.

Chill karein
