ICC was active in advance to facilitate India? There are already such allegations. Earlier complaints about the role of umpires in today's game appear to be true. It has been said that Bangladesh's opponent on March 19 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground was not only India, but also ICC. It seems like a surprising thing, but it seems so from the perspective of the situation. There are several logical reasons for this. India's two outs were not due to the umpires. Again, there is a lot of criticism about the catch near the boundary during Bangladesh's game. Bangladesh, however, complained to the ICC. The ICC said the matter will be investigated. If anyone is found guilty, action will be taken - said ICC.

Before the start of the World Cup, India has had a lot of fun in the Test series and the tri-nation series in Australia. India did not play the final of the tri-nation series. That team came back to the World Cup and changed dramatically! Looking for answers to these questions, many have complained that the ICC is giving unethical benefits to India in the World Cup!

The allegation was proved to be true when it was seen that changes were made in the schedule of the quarter final due to India's influence. The schedule for the World Cup was decided at least a year in advance.

According to the scheduled schedule of ICC, Bangladesh was supposed to play in Wellington as the fourth team of 'A' group on Saturday, March 21. And Australia and Pakistan were supposed to play in Melbourne. New Zealand and West Indies were supposed to play in Sydney. South Africa and Sri Lanka are scheduled to meet at the Adelaide Oval.

Allegedly, ICC drastically changed the schedule of quarter finals for the benefit of India. India wants to play the quarter final in Melbourne. The venue and date were changed to fulfill that wish. Due to the changed schedule, Bangladesh had to face India in Melbourne.

However, Bangladesh is not afraid to play at any venue. But the biggest area of fear is what other unethical benefits ICC can give to India like venue change. One of the biggest unethical favoritism is perhaps the creation of wickets on India's demand. What happened today. ICC, the governing body of cricket, has been doing this work for Dhoni since the beginning of the World Cup.

India faced Ireland in Wellington on March 10 in the group stage match. Before that match, Carl Johnson, the pitch curator of Wellington, was instructed by the ICC to build wickets suitable for India's batting. Carl Johnson himself admitted to the media at the time, 'The ICC told us to make good batting tracks. Pitches that have almost no seam movement. The turn will also be less. The ICC is happy with the two matches played here.

Many believe the same has happened in Melbourne. The reason for this is that ICC runs on India's words, India's meaning. The governing body of world cricket will work as they want. Again, the ICC may ask that, if India is eliminated after losing to Bangladesh, then their huge trade space may be closed and they may face financial losses. As happened in the 2007 World Cup, due to India's exit from the first round.

And so it is almost certain that, be it for the sake of trade, power or BCCI's financial strength, there is no doubt that the ICC acted as Bangladesh's opponent in Melbourne. It can be said without hesitation after seeing the shameless bias of ICC in favor of India so far in the World Cup and the errors of umpiring in today's match as well.
