Commenting on the move to revoke Zimbabwe's Full Member status, Anand Vasu in the Hindustan Times asks why should the BCCI take a stand when other boards have followed government directives? He highlights two problems in case the Indian board and the ICC indeed do the right thing and strip Zimbabwe of its status.

Firstly, if the ICC was to go after Zimbabwe cricket for its political problems, then what will happen of their plans to take cricket to China and USA, one country with a woeful human rights record at home and another which holds hundreds indefinitely without any rights whatsoever at an off-shore detention centre?

Secondly, Morgan’s taking the moral high ground is a touch disingenuous, for the ECB has made its move only after receiving a letter from their Culture, Media and Sport secretary, thereby safeguarding them from the $2 million fine that the ICC could have levied had they unilaterally snapped ties with Zimbabwe.
