What BS is this… the worst part is… there will be no consequences…. No one will lose their job… many people will not even care… imagine similar situations in Indian cricket… that would have been too trending topic… this will be forgotten before Feb 2022, only players/coach/few fans will be sad about the best opportunity lost … that chu****** resigned from captaincy after losing everything in men cricket and all news channels covered him. He was part of at least 10% of news for 2-3 days on all news/social media platforms. If you switch on news today you won’t see any mention of this news at all.
This year biobubble has been breached in I-League ( AIFF actually celebrated it ) ISL ( going on despite covid cases) and now it has hit womens asia cup
India then tried to force a postponement but rules state that it can be granted only in “exceptional circumstances” which Covid-19 positive cases wasn’t. The hosts cannot appeal either as competitions committee decisions are final and binding.
". Now ridiculous that afc does not consider covid as exceptional
We are not a disciplined and organised lot - I am sorry to write this.
Part blame should go to players, management . hotel staff also besides association. They do not know how to run biobubble. We do one part and ignore other !!!
Last year when IPL biobubble was going on in India and many players got infected, it was revealed that family members of cricketers were joining and leaving the hotel, influential businessman franchise holders and their friends kept on dropping to click pics with cricketers. Ganguly was actually joking that there is no Covid and citing Premier League cases. Cricketers were caught in a restaurant in Australia. BFC players were found roaming in Maldives. Batra was happy to waive quarantine for Hockey teams, later on our own womens team was removed from Asia Champions trophy due to covid
Foreign authorities are strict in enforcing biobubble. Japan olympics had no case of covid. They did not allow any non delegation member to meet with indian athletes. South Africa did very well recently in cricket tour.
just 2 nights before AIFF was tweeting happy faces of players doing training. and next morning so many players are found positive !!!
Our players, management, association all need to improve and become more professional.
