A lot can happen in two years

Still two years left until the 50 over format World Cup and the ICC has wasted no time in taking it away from Pakistan. Though it was probably on the cards, there was always a little ray of hope in the heart of the optimistic Pakistan cricket fan.

But was there any need to decide this early? For one, if terrorists were going to target the 2011 World Cup, the ICC has just told them not to bother planning for Pakistan but for the other three countries right?

One of the co-hosts is India. The Pakistani IPL players were recently withdrawn from the IPL because of the very fact that it was due to be held in India. So what will happen when the Pakistan team has to play 2011 World Cup matches in India? Whilst also taking into account the Terror situation in the sub-continent as a whole, don’t be surprised if the the 2011 world cup is moved away from the subcontinent to Australia and New Zealand.

Stani Army thinks this will happen, it’s just that the ICC has to let the BCCI down much slower than it does the PCB.

    I think the only surprise was how quickly they made the decision. Not only in terms of the two years but the ICC meeting is to last two days and they have already announced that they are taking it away from us on the first day.

    Agree, surely it’s going to be moved from the subcontinent.

    The ICC should have just done it now and given the World Cup after, to the subcontinent.
