On this Special Report, host Rajdeep Sardesai leads a high-level roundtable discussion on the political turmoil overshadowing the upcoming T20 World Cup. The programme addresses the significant developments of Bangladesh opting out of the tournament and Pakistan’s subsequent refusal to play against India. Legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar notes, ‘When you have these controversies just before the first ball is bowled, they will dominate the headlines.’ The panel, featuring World Cup winner Madan Lal, former player Atul Wassan, and journalist Fareshteh Aslam, explores whether India is being viewed as a ‘bully’ in world cricket and if sports can truly remain separate from political tensions. Beyond the controversy, the experts analyse India’s prospects as firm favourites, highlighting the ‘fearless’ brand of cricket played by the current squad. The discussion also touches upon the rise of young talents like Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Abhishek Sharma, while debating the impact of bilateral tensions on the growth of the sport in the subcontinent.
