I don't think there's any tie up between Afghanistan and Pakistan team. When it comes to training. They might train in the same country, UAE but I don't think the Afghans train in Pakistan. It's a possibility though, they could train in Pakistan as well as in India as, the talented players get selected for the premier leagues of each country and they train with those respective teams.

In last two decades Pakistan have no good relationship with Afghanistan just because of this their cricket relationship is better with India instead of Pakistan, and they are going into IPL as well which is good platform for them as their nearly half dozen players are having good contracts and good money from them which is helping them in positive way.

Few months back they hired Umer Gul as bowling coach and now have Jonathan Trot an English man as their head coach but still they need the good number of matches for better results against big teams which is going to help them, but main problem is still there they can't play at home which is surely a concern and important hopefully we will have them as good team in near future in all formats.

Afghanistan players were raised and trained in Pakistan and PCB is not a big board like big 3. Why BCCI is not helping Nepal so that level of cricket there is raised and they start playing international cricket. Nepal is very much dependent on India. Anyways dont expect anything good from ICC for associate countries.

I am not agreed with you about this as Afghan players are trained and raised in Pakistan if you have any link then please send me because mostly they play in Sharjah UAE or India where they have a ground for playing test matches as home ground, and they were mostly stayed in these two countries before Taliban era in Afghanistan like the UAE and India just because of this please not spread fake news without any proof.

They play their first test match against India as well, and they have good base in India instead of Pakistan which is well known by all cricketing community I agree about these associates never expect any positive thing from ICC as they are benched of crap peoples which are not interested in development of this game like we have FIFA and few other games which are spreading drastically around the world with strong system and better ideas.

I feel the same way - but Pakistan and Afghanistan have a board and many people come to Pakistan - earlier during war and now again.
So there might be an option that Afghan team got it training from Pakistani player - but what Afghani did in the match with Paksitan is unacceptable.

i don't know why but in my opinion ICC feels like they have become so lazy right now, this should be the perfect opportunity for the ICC to show that they actually care about the game, i think this is a time when cricket is at its lowest point, and ICC can really show right now that they are actually working for the future of cricket by doing some simple stuff like increasing the funding of associate nations and just even trying to include cricket in the Olympics, i don't think any cricket board is planning to oppose these ideas now, but ICC is still not doing anything

I don't think they are lazy they are unprofessional and using their power in wrong way which is never been better for development of this game cricket they need to work like a strong sports authority but sadly right now they are doing all just for IPL and BCCI which is surely never been positive and developing for this game if they follow all rules and go through with level then surely they can achieve better results but sadly first Australia and England were in hold, and they used this ICC for their own sack and now India is big player, so they are doing same mistake which is surely hurting the cause of this game.

I believe they have right to take some advantage from their big shape and take some benefit but still they need to go fair and equally with all other members because this is need of time and better future of this game but sadly no one going to do any positive thing for this game which is surely going to hurt in near future.

This talk is going to be long because right now if ICC is going to do any decision like if they have no enough funds then they are not going to help them surely this could be disaster because they will lose good amount, and they could be not able to run their system which is very important for this game they need to work on like FIFA where they are providing funds to all countries and helping them for having better structure and quality which is very important for them even FIFA is very big, and their income is also much ahead from ICC but here they also can increase their income, but they need to do work on this with positive mind set.
Just helping B-4 is never been going to increase this game's popularity and income most of the time if they are just thinking about India and IPL then surely it's going good way for having better sources of income go ahead and do better marketing and spread this game with just T-20 format which is the best way of income for them right now.

A lot of focus has been on the BCCI and their demands for more funds. The Indian board has softened their stance, after the Srinivasan-Pawar mafia was kicked out. Now they are in favor of Olympics inclusion and more sympathetic towards the associate nations. But at the same time, no one really talks about the discrepancy within some of the lower ranking test nations. There is no justification for Zimbabwe receiving $12 million per year from the ICC, while teams such as Nepal receive only around 2% of that amount.
Test status should not be permanent. There should be a promotion-relegation system, where lower ranking teams such as Zimbabwe should play against top ranking associate nations such as Scotland to retain their test status.

i believe that ICC did such a thing (reducing the amount that the associate teams are getting from the ICC) because they were not generating revenue from these associate countries
i think if it was any other sports body they actually would have tried to find a way to make the teams play better and eventually generate a lot more revenue from them

but the problem is ICC tried to take the easy way out, and they just decided to not invest more money where they are not getting revenue from
obviously, this action had some reaction, the rich countries have benefited greatly from this, and the poor countries are the ones to suffer
this reaction was possible for another reason, which is being able to form the national team with foreigners, that further decreased the quality of poor teams

Tbh I have no idea the amount of associate nations are getting from the ICC right now but I agree they can't expect more because the last time I heard back in 2015 or so it was like a million or so, that's a fucking joke and criminal imo.

No wonder cricket is not spreading quickly as it is supposed to be.

There are two different factors.

1. The funding for associate members were reduced from $62.5 million per year in 2007-15 cycle to $20 million per year in 2015-23 cycle ($20 million was a compromise after Srinivasan-Pawar mafia proposed zero funds for the associate nations in 2014).

2. The eligibility rules were changed, allowing countries to form teams with 100% foreigners. This benefitted Oman, UAE.etc, and they now receive a greater share of funds. Adversely affected countries with native players such as Nepal and Argentina. They are unable to win matches and therefore receive a smaller share of the funds.

For countries such as UAE, the decrease is not very significant. They receive almost the same amount of funds that they used to receive before 2015. But for countries fielding native players such as Kenya, Thailand, PNG and Nepal, the funds that they now receive is around 10% of what they used to get before 2015. And it is not surprising that cricket is dying in these countries.

There is good development for Pakistan, Muhammad Hasnain is bowling at 150 kph with his new bowling action. He is also taking wickets in current tournament that tells the story that he can bowl with his new bowling action. He is just 24 years old and with shaheen Shah he can serve Pakistan for 10 years atleast.

Every pace king comes out of Pakistan. Currently Pakistan team is performing fairly well.Muhammad Hasnain bowls at a speed of 150 km, we can say that the speed is very complete and unusual.And the wicket he is taking in the current tournament is really commendable And the story seems to be.And he is doing all these performances at the age of 24. I always pray to go further and do better in the future.

It is very easy to say that Pakistan is a factory producing fast bowlers. It can be said that Pakistan is the origin of the best bowlers in history. Here I would like to mention the names of some fast bowlers who are very familiar faces. Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Imran Khan, Fazal Mahmood, Shoaib Akhtar, Sarfraz Nawaz, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Asif, Umar Gul, Aaqib and Javed everyone is born from Pakistani cricket.

Although India has not been able to make to finals but they have got their legend back - and the legend is the real legend.

~~~
In my hometown, which falls within the tier-2 category, I have huge number of people cancelling their cable TV subscription and going for OTT platforms. Nowadays people don't care spending a few thousand rupees to watch quality stuff. Disney-Star paid $250 million per year last time, and that was in 2014. 8 years have passed and I would expect the rates to go up by 3x-4x, given the rapid growth in Indian consumer wealth. My conclusion is that Disney-Star paid a fair amount, while Sony and Reliance under-estimated the bid.

Agree with the former part of your comment.

for the latter, I guess it would make sense when all numbers are out from the ICC officials in DEC. IMO other competitors didn't actually underestimated anything, they just wanted an e-auction and Disney was desperate to get some content for Hotstar for obvious reasons.

Until a couple of years back, Hotstar was ahead in Sports OTT market by a huge margin. Now they are facing stiff competition (not just from Sony LIV, but also from minor competitors such as Fancode). Platforms such as Sony Liv do have higher quality and variety compared to Hotstar. And in the next 4-5 years I am sure that OTT will grow much bigger than the cable TV segment (especially for Sports), and Hotstar wants to cling on to the market share at any cost. And given the huge premium they paid for the Indian subcontinent, I won't be surprised if rest of the world goes for more than $1 billion.

As mentioned in my previous post that Hotstar does have a monopoly in OTT market, close to 60 Million paid subscribers so no argument there whatsoever.

Let me put it this way, why i think they overpaid (not saying that they can't make money, just focusing on overpaid issue)

- Do you think that casual or even hardcore cricket fans watch every match in the ICC tournament? 99.99% would say no because fans love to watch their respective team (sometimes they even miss the action) and marquee, knockout encounters like Semifinals/ Finals.

-There are total of 179 matches in 4 ICC tournaments and India is playing 26 matches in 4 ICC tournaments then we have additional 8 semifinals and 4 finals (knockouts).

- From the broadcaster's point of view if they are targeting the Indian market only, then they have only 26 (Ind) + 8(Semis) + 4(finals) = 38 Important matches out of 179 in the ICC tournaments.

- If we look at important matches only (38) then according to $3.02 Billion bid it every match is worth close to $80 Million.

- And if we are looking at every ICC match which is 179 then every game is worth approx $16.8 Million. Point to note that 1 IPL match worth is $13-ish million, that's a recent benchmark.

Remember 179 - 38 = 141 non India/ non knockouts.

Now tell me which broadcaster will pay close to $17 million bucks for Aus vs SL, Pak vs SL, SA vs BAN or even Eng vs Aus for Indian or any market?

If what you say is true and your numbers are correct then ICC is not taking care of small accociate members. It is like 15-20x yearly budget for us small counties.

^^^ I don't know what will happen to him now, but Sandeep Lamichhane was the only player in the Nepal squad with international franchise league experience. If he is suspended, then it will negatively impact their fortunes. Already they are performing poorly against squads with 100% foreigner composition such as Kuwait, Singapore and Hong Kong. Nepal is a cricket crazy country, but recently the national team's performance has been very disappointing. This latest incident is like rubbing salt to an open wound.

Looks as if Nepal's most popular cricketer has landed himself in trouble:

https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/sandeep-lamichhane-suspended-by-nepal-board-after-arrest-warrant-issued-against-him-1333676

A 17-year old girl has accused him of raping her and as a result Sandeep Lamichhane has been suspended by Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN). Currently he was participating in the CPL competition, but his franchise (Jamaica Tallawahs) have announced that they are releasing him immediately and he will be leaving for Nepal today. The alleged incident happened three weeks ago, and I am not sure why the complaint wasn't filed till now. Rape laws in Indian sub-continent are frequently misused by females and I just hope that it is not the case this time.

In Sub-continent these are mostly misused which is really matter of shame because we have too many cases in past as well where things were happened with mutual understanding and the suddenly it's appear that girl or woman complain about rape authorities needs to do better strategy for this because this is surely going to have big problem for player like Sandeep Lamichane as now his contract with Jamaica Tallawabs is under threat and his reputation is already damaged badly which is not recoverable in any case.

If this happened three weeks back then why they lodged complaint after long time it's surely a big dilemma and need to go with this fairly and investigations needs to be started this why this girl waste three weeks for lodging this complaint.
