All West Indies Games Men and women Are broadcast by ATN ( Asian Television Network). The piper calls the tune. They have to satisfy their sponsors. You should be tankful.

So why is it the first time it happened? If that was the reason the game would have been broadcasted in an Asian language.

I don’t work for them. I am an avid reader, I educate myself, instead of making baseless comments.

Sammy has lost 8 out of nine at home. Do you consider that a baseless comment?

Inzamam started this years ago when he began his interviews with Inshallah. With all due respect the conference should be in English with translation.

Me too.
In addition to ESPN Caribbean, who is also a big sponsor.
Windies loss the plot many years ago.
CWI still had that 3rd world management mentality.
The 'Cede to the Big Massa mentality'.

I understand your point, however we the average people of the Caribbean still don't know what was asked or answered?

I don’t people are saying they dislike Urdu, but whenever there is more than one one language, there should be a translation.

Understood where you’re coming from but disagree. Interviews are a dime a dozen; not necessary except for maybe a World Cup final

in a series hosted by the West Indies. Now that is unforgivable.
Have you been to South Trinidad, where the match was played?
Urdu is widely spoken in households in south - so maybe it was appropriate. Especially among (southern) Muslims, Jummah is in Arabic and Urdu.
Historically in T&T and Guyana, there have been complaints that locals support India and Pakistan over WI.

Usually the case but this is the first time I saw it done without a translator...but to be fair the Pak presenter who is fluent in English did himself translate the answers in English.
Also interviews with Cappos Hope and Rizwan were conducted in English.
On reflection, I believe they could have been pressed for time and this was just a one off situation.
