Response from Niue Cricket & Kilikiti Board to World Cricket Conference
Well, well, well, look who's showing their true colors. The World Cricket Conference (WCC) has certainly outdone themselves this time, haven't they?
How dare they even insinuate that they have the audacity to strip us of our hosting rights? Let's get one thing straight: we earned our hosting rights fair and square, unlike some other nations (cough Denmark cough) who seem to have landed the Club World Cup hosting gig on a silver platter. What's the reasoning behind that, WCC? Maybe because they couldn't host a tea party, let alone a cricket tournament? Oh, but they showed us some fancy photoshopped pictures of renovated stadiums, didn't they? Well, newsflash: we've seen those stadiums firsthand during the Club World Cup, and let's just say they're not exactly up to snuff. Looks like a little scam orchestrated by the WCC and the Dansk Cricket-Union (DCU), doesn't it?
And now, since we've snagged the co-hosting rights for the World Cup, WCC is suddenly sniffing around, trying to snatch it away from us. Is it because we're not one of their golden boys? Or could it be something more insidious, like a hint of racism behind their decisions? Let's not forget about another one of their favorites, Morocco, who gets to play in different continental leagues like the African Cup of Nations and the Sahara Shield. And when they can't win, what do they do? They get their own little Arab Cup to play in. Meanwhile, a cricket-loving nation like Niue gets denied a chance to play in their continental league because, oh, WCC can't be bothered to create a window for it. Lazy, much?
A global body like WCC should have the decency to respect the ethics of a nation like Niue, who actually gives a damn about the future. Unlike some others who are just sitting in their chairs, filling their pockets and playing favorites.
So, WCC, before you go pointing fingers and making threats, maybe take a good, hard look in the mirror. Because the world is watching, and we're not buying what you're selling.
Sincerely,
Niue Cricket & Kilikiti Board
