The official live streaming site FanCode has stopped supporting the Pakistan Super League (PSL) altogether.
It will no longer webcast the matches. Moreover, it has also erased earlier videos of the ongoing season. Meanwhile, the Fancode management has not yet made an official announcement.
Reports have indicated that the official TV broadcaster for the league, Sony Sports Network, has also discontinued its coverage.
The April 22 terror attack on tourists in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives, is the cause of these actions. The animosity between India and Pakistan, as a result, has arisen which is being observed in the steps one country is doing against another.
The cricket community denounces the horrific incident in Pahalgam.
The Board denounced the ‘cowardly conduct’ and offered their deepest sympathies to the families of the deceased, according to a statement released by BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia two days ago.
“The terrible loss of innocent life in yesterday’s horrific terror assault in Pahalgam has left the cricketing world in shock and agony. In addition to strongly denouncing this heinous and despicable crime on behalf of the BCCI, I would like to offer our deepest sympathies to the families of the deceased and offer prayers for their souls. We stand together in sharing their sorrow and loss during this tragic time,” Saikia said in a statement.
Indian cricket players expressed their sympathies and condemnations. On his Instagram, Virat Kohli shared a story about the assault.
“Very horrified by the horrific assault on innocent people in Pahalgam. Sincere sympathies to the victims’ families. “I’m praying for justice to be served for this heinous act, as well as peace and strength for the families of everyone who died,” Kohli wrote.
Rajeev Shukla, the vice president of the BCCI, has stated that India has no chance of playing Pakistan in a bilateral series at this time due to the incident’s aftermath.
“We condemn it and stand with the victims. Anything our government says will be followed. Due to the government’s stance, we don’t play in bilateral series with Pakistan. Furthermore, we shall no longer engage in bilateral relations with Pakistan. However, we participate in ICC events because of ICC engagement. “ICC knows what’s going on and will deal with it,” Shukla told Sports Tak.
