AI Summary:
England captain Jos Buttler must not be thrown under the bus, says Steve Harmison. A group of more than 160 British politicians have called on the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to refuse to play Afghanistan in protest at the women’s sports policy of the Taliban. Since returning to power in 2021 the Taliban have banned female participation. The ICC has allowed the Afghanistan men’s team to continue to compete in global competitions, with England due to face them in the one-day international Champions Trophy in South Africa, who are also due to play Afghanistan at the Champions Trophy, have backed the ECB’s stance. This is despite veteran anti-apartheid campaigner and British politician Peter Hain.
