Official England Cricket Love is blind... So is the ICC...(Indian Cricket Council) RJ Tucker didn’t gave out LBW to AB de Villiers, on an appeal from Saeed Ajmal, when the TV footage showed that the ball was really missing the leg stump, but alas..! It was hitting the middle stump. It looks for ICC, any illegal act done by the foreign players and foreign umpires with CLOSED eyes, are PARDONABLE acts and they can get away, even with murder. However, the eyes of the umpires are always wide open to warn Pakistani players for overstepping on the pitch, for which even the third umpire, constantly reminds over wireless communication, to the on field umpire. They say love is blind…. It looks so is the ICC (Indian Cricket Council)… When it comes to dealings with Pakistan. In this connection, till date, no action has been taken against South African captain GC Smith, for claiming a false catch in the 1st Test played at Abu Dhabi, on the pretext that when he took the catch, his eyes were closed, notwithstanding the fact that after taking the catch he immediately claimed it, by raising his both hands (in hands up position) in the air and jubilantly ran towards the umpire. But then who will dare punish captain of the Proteas team, as both GC Smith and the ICC CEO David Richardson, are from the same country i.e., South Africa. Under the situation the word APARTHEID comes to mind very painfully, which is very appropriately defined as below, by the vocabulary . Apartheid was a racist political policy in South Africa demanding segregation of the nations white and non-white populations. This law requires separation in all forms, reminiscent of parts of the United States before the Equal Rights Amendment. The law of apartheid came into being with the South African election in 1948. So it makes sense that the words history goes back to that date, from the Afrikaans word for separateness. It comes from the Dutch, with the heid part meaning hood, for apart-hood. Many people referred to it as apart-hate, an apt description for a policy that brutally oppressed an entire people based solely on their skin color. The system was ended in 1993.
