☆ Cricket Afghan fans disappointed at Australia cancellation over women's rights

[1/6] An Afghan man plays cricket on the snow-covered ground at the Chaman-e-Huzori field in Kabul, Afghanistan, January 13, 2023. "The decision by Australia made us very disappointed," said 25-year-old fruit seller Abdullah. Australia were scheduled to play a test match against Afghanistan in November 2021 but the fixture was postponed after the Taliban took power in August that year. The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) has criticised Australia's decision, saying it had put political interests over sportsmanship and that cricket had contributed to education and social development in the country. Cricket Australia chief executive Nick Hockley defended the decision, saying "basic human rights" are not politics.
☆ Australia withdraw from ODI series against Afghanistan in March

Jan 12 (Reuters) - Australia's men's team has withdrawn from their one-day international (ODI) series against Afghanistan in March following further restrictions on women's and girls' rights imposed by the Taliban, Cricket Australia (CA) said on Thursday. Australia and Afghanistan were scheduled to play three ODIs in the United Arab Emirates but CA scrapped the series after "extensive consultation" with stakeholders, including the Australian government. The series formed part of the International Cricket Council's (ICC) Super League, where the top eight teams automatically qualify for the 2023 World Cup. Australia were scheduled to play a test match against Afghanistan in November 2021 but the fixture was postponed after the Taliban seized power in August of that year. They have continued to appear at ICC events since the Taliban takeover, however, and faced Australia during last year's Twenty20 World Cup.
