The ICC should see Afghanistan as a team and not look in their political issues. Even though we know that Afghanistan Talibans are threat to the world but this has nothing to do with cricket. If they are playing good cricket, then ICC should not ban them.
By the way, is there any news which hints that ICC may impose ban on Afghanistan cricket board or is it just speculation ?
Unfortunately we can't expect anything from icc on such matters. The new regime in Afghanistan don't have good relations with big 3, rest you can understand yourself. One of the biggest concern is whether new government allow cricket team to play under the old afghan flag or not? The other concerns include whether woman's are allowed to play cricket? There are many if else which need to be cleared by new Afghanistan government in order to keep playing the cricket.
Cricket Australia will cancel the Test match against Afghanistan in November if women are not allowed to play the sport under the Taliban regime. source
Nothing much to say about SA Aus match. So far Aussies bowlers have done there job, seems like SA will be restricted to 120. It will be an easy target to chase for Australia.
Second match will be interesting, odds are favouring Eng but WI is equally good in T20. I have placed my bet on WI. Wish me luck.
