England cricket captain Jos Buttler has stated his opposition to boycotting Afghanistan in the upcoming Champions Trophy, despite calls for such action due to the Taliban regime's treatment of women. Buttler emphasizes the need for expert guidance on navigating political situations and hopes the match will proceed as planned.
DUBAI - Jos Buttler, England 's captain, says he doesn't believe a boycott of Afghanistan cricket is "the way to go", ahead of the men's teams' scheduled meeting in next month's Champions Trophy.
In her letter, which was signed by more than 160 British politicians, Antoniazzi urged England's men's team to "speak out against the horrific treatment of women and girls in Afghanistan under the Taliban", where female participation in sport has effectively been banned since 2021. She added that a boycott would "send a clear signal that such grotesque abuses will not be tolerated".
Speaking in Kolkata ahead of the first T20I against India, Buttler insisted he and his team would be led by the "experts", but was optimistic that the match would go ahead as planned.
