Ireland vs Afghanistan: Cricket Ireland ka bada faisla aur moral dilemma | ODIs 2026

Ireland aur Afghanistan ki ODI series: Ek bada aur controversial faisla

Cricket ki duniya mein ek baar phir badi charcha shuru ho gayi hai! Cricket Ireland (CI) ne aane wale summer mein Afghanistan ki men’s team ke khilaf 5 ODI matches ki series khelne ka ailaan kiya hai. Lekin, ye faisla itna aasan nahi tha. Board ne khule taur par swikaar kiya hai ki Taliban dwara mahilaon aur ladkiyon ke saath ki ja rahi badsaluki ke kaaran unhe ‘moral discomfort’ (naitik asahayata) mehsoos ho rahi hai.

Kyun hai ye faisla charcha mein?

Australia aur England jaise bade cricketing nations ne 2021 mein Taliban ke satta mein aane ke baad se Afghanistan ke saath bilateral series khelne se mana kar diya tha. Aise mein, Ireland ka ye kadam kaafi alag aur chaukane wala hai. Cricket Ireland ki nayi CEO, Sarah Keane, ne saaf kiya ki ye faisla financial ya legal kaaranon se nahi, balki board ne sooch-samajh kar liya hai taaki khel aur sarkar ko alag rakha ja sake.

Afghan Women’s Team ke liye support

Sarah Keane ne kaha ki sirf men’s team ko bulana hi unka maksad nahi hai. Unhone bataya: “Humne Afghanistan ki exiled (desh-nikali) mahila cricket team ko bhi Ireland aane ka nimantran (invitation) diya hai. Hum chahte hain ki unka muddha agenda par bana rahe aur unhe ICC aur baaki boards ka support milta rahe.”

Ireland ka 2026 Summer Schedule

Sirf Afghanistan hi nahi, Ireland ka is saal ka schedule kaafi busy hai:

• New Zealand: Ek Test match (May 27-30, Stormont).
• India: Do T20Is (June 26 aur 28, Stormont).
• Afghanistan: 5 ODIs (August 5-14, Bready aur Stormont).

Halanki, Andy Balbirnie ne social media par apni nirasha (disappointment) zahir ki hai ki unhe is summer sirf 8 home matches mil rahe hain. Par cricket fans ke liye, Stormont aur Bready ke maidanon par action dekhna kisi treat se kam nahi hoga!
