Former match referee Chris Broad has recently made shocking revelations about favoritism towards the Indian cricket team during his 21-year tenure with the ICC. Broad disclosed that he was instructed by the ICC to be lenient towards India when it came to over-rate offenses. He even recounted a specific incident where he felt pressured to manipulate timings in India's favor, attributing this bias to political influence and the increasing control of India over the governing body. These revelations have sparked controversy and raised concerns about fairness and impartiality in international cricket officiating.
