00:00Look, it's pretty disgraceful that sport is being politicized in this way on both sides, frankly.
00:06I don't think that Mustafa Zil should have been denied his contract to play in Kolkata.
00:12It was the most unfortunate intrusion of politics.
00:15I think the Bangladeshi reaction was an overreaction, but it's also a reflection of the same.
00:21And Pakistan is trying to show its solidarity to the Bangladeshi.
00:24This whole thing is spiraling out of control.
00:26I think we need to really come to an understanding that sport, especially a sport like cricket, which means so much to all the people,
00:34should be a means of actually bringing us together, at least on the playing field, rather than allowing this to go on like this.
00:43I honestly think this is now a wake-up call for all concerned to contact each other on an emergency basis.
00:49The ICC could be the platform for it and just say, let's call off this nonsense.
00:54Okay, it's too late. I know it's too late for this tournament, but for the future.
00:58We can't go on like this forever.
