After the heart wrenching news of Zimbabwe being suspended by ICC made to the surface, there have been a mixed reaction from the critics, to the players, to members of the boards and lastly from the fans. In a drastic decision, over the nightZimbabwe cricketers found themselves unemployed, and forced away from the game they so intensely loved to contribute to. ICC argued that Zimbabwe cricket was infiltrated by the Govt., and which was politically affecting the game, rather than one nation.
With all the heartbreak, several of the Zimbabwe players took up the social media to show dissent over the decision and tell their opinion in the matter along with the entire world. Several other rebelled to continue playing cricket for the sake of the game, without asking for a paycheck in return. However, the player’s dedication towards the game was yet again barred by ICC.
Just speechless at this decision by @ICC

So if @ICC have anymore surprises for us please don't be shy, just get them ALL out now so that we can plan our unemployed lives a bit better.

A few days ago, ICC, looking for the last two qualifying spots of the upcoming T20 World Cup, they opted Nambiaover the women’s cricket team and Nigeria over the men’s team. The qualification which is set to happen in Scotland, later this month, will exclude Zimbabwe, not even letting them compete.
The women’s team will be replaced by Nambia, who are scheduled to join Scotland, Bangladesh, Ireland, Netherlands, Papa New Guinea, Thailand and USA. Similarly, Nigeriawill be joining UAE, Hong Kong, Ireland, Jersey, Kenya, Namibia, Netherlands, Oman, Papua New Guinea, Scotland, Singapore, and two American team which are yet to be decided through the America’s final, later this month, in the place of Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe cricketer, Sikandar Raza lashed out on ICC for taking such a drastic step and making many cricketers pay for the decision. It is still unclear how, Zimbabwe’s future will turn out to be, with ICC severing any ties with Zimbabwe, coming days are very crucial for the nation.
