Over 160 British parliamentarians have urged the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to withdraw from the upcoming Champions Trophy fixture against Afghanistan, protesting the Taliban government's restrictions on women's rights.
Members from both parliamentary chambers, the House of Commons and House of Lords, which included Reform UK's leader Nigel Farage and former Labour party chief Jeremy Corbyn, urged the ECB "to speak out against the horrific treatment of women and girls in Afghanistan under the Taliban."
