If you look at the recent matches, then Kenya has always lost one to one matches against Uganda in both T20 and ODI formats. Kenya is not the same team that reached the semi-finals of the 2003 World Cup. Once the golden generation players retired, the team simply disintegrated. And at that time Srinivasan-Pawar mafia took control of the ICC and stopped funding the associate nations. Game died down completely and by the time Shashank Manohar tried to rectify the mistakes, it was too late. Anyway, Uganda has made rapid progress during the last few years. So they will be the favorites.

It seems like you don't know much about the IPL frankly speaking. Players like MSD, Kohli etc aren't on the auction table because their respective teams retained them for obvious reasons.

Also, it's auction(Not oction). Do your research before randomly stating stuff here and there.

Two decades ago, Kenya had some world class players in their squad, such as Maurice Odumbe, Steve Tikolo, Collins Obuya, Thomas Odoyo and Ravindu Shah. But those times are long gone. Once the golden generation retired from cricket, they went downhill. Only Collins Obuya is still with them. Now the squad is primarily composed of Indian origin players. Kenya is a prime example where the ICC actually managed to destroy cricket. Anyway, now Uganda and Namibia are the strongest associate sides from African continent. Kenya is nowhere in picture.

I have noticed some improvement in the performance of the Kenyan team. But now the situation is much different. Teams like Namibia and Uganda are much ahead of them. And 75% of the squad is now comprised of Asian origin players (two decades ago, 75% were native). I am still hopeful of a turnaround, but it will take them a long time to recover from the backstabbing that they received from the ICC. The positive thing is that because of social media, the ICC can no longer ignore the associate nations. In recent past they have seen an increase in funding.

The new series of T20 is coming soon between Pakistan and New Zealand, I know that this series will start after a long time, it will start on 12 January and will finish on 21 January but my main purpose is not this, my purpose is that after two or three Pakistan squad will be announced, and on this time maybe Babar, Rizwan, and maybe Shaheen don't play this series.

I do not conform yet but PCB said that maybe Babar and Rizwan don't play this series because they should need rest and Shaheen problem is you see him in this Australian series that he can't do a fastball as he did previous of 150km, he just bowl of 130km so he also need rest, so that's why they will not select maybe.

Pakistani players not coming to play in IPL or Pakistani players not being given chance in IPL is nothing new. But this year Bangladeshi players are not being given a chance, one of the main reasons is the controversy over Australia's support for Bangladeshi players in this year's World Cup. Moreover, Sri Lankan players may not be given a chance this year. However, we were able to see two Bangladeshi players in the past IPLs, but this year the support of Bangladeshis towards IPL will decrease a bit if Mustafizur Rahman, Liton Das and Shakib Al Hasan are not auctioned.

In the early seasons of IPL, Pakistani players used to play regularly in this league, I saw videos on YouTube by searching.Political discrimination is one of the main reasons why Pakistani players are not given a chance to play in the IPL.Coming to the words of Bangladesh, there is no word written anywhere that all countries will support a team in the World Cup and no one will.As far as I know on match day between Bangladesh and India the Indian fans tear the tiger which is the symbol of the Bangladesh Cricket Board by the Indian fans and also desecrate the flag of Bangladesh.As a result, when India and Australia reached the final, most of the fans of Bangladesh supported Australia.On the day of the India vs Australia final match when India lost to Australia, various Bangladeshi fans wrote some nasty things on social media.Due to which the Indian fans and the Indian Cricket Board got angry and canceled the decision of any Bangladeshi player to play in the IPL this season.

Yea, insane purchases. Even if they play well, this exorbitant value. On other side, I feel Ravindra sold for cheap, and Bangalore should have gone for him, but they stayed silent.

I didn't understand craze behind bidding war for Harshal Patel tbh.
