Overview <\/strong><\/p>\n

CWG 2022 women\u2019s cricket final between Australia and India on Sunday, 7th august. Australia won by nine runs but it was a controversial win because of the involvement of covid positive player, Tahlia McGrath.<\/p>\n

Detailed information <\/strong><\/p>\n

Birmingham 2022 commonwealth games began on Thursday, 28 July. Commonwealth games 2022 t20 final between Australia and India at Edgbaston was held on Sunday, 7th august. Australian women\u2019s team won the match by scoring 161 runs whereas Indian team was bowled out at 152. The women\u2019s final comes into the limelight because of a controversial pronouncement by the Australians.<\/p>\n

The all-rounder Australian cricketer, Tahlia may McGrath, tested positive for covid; despite medical and safety concerns, she was allowed to participate in the match. Now like every matter in question, the netizens have two opposing perspectives. There were a lot of criticisms and outrage as well as justification regarding the matter. Everything is fair in love and war, and Australia becomes the epitome of this. It is believed that Australians would do whatever it takes to win, by hook or by crook, and by permitting Tahlia McGrath, the covid positive player to play in CWG women\u2019s cricket final, they proved it<\/p>\n

. People on various social media platforms have taken a stand against it and called out the hypocrisy that this decision carries. In the past, Australia deported the Siberian tennis player Novak Djokovic because he was not vaccinated against covid. In addition to this, a week ago in CWG, Aneesh Pillai of India was not exempted from competing in his event, para discus thrower after he tested positive for covid-19. Commonwealth Games Australia issued an official statement to justify the decision by claiming that they consulted the tournament experts and match officials before permitting Tahlia McGrath to be a part of the team. People have varying opinions, some say that India should\u2019ve taken a stance against McGrath’s participation. <\/p>\n

Harmanpreet Kaur, Indian cricket team captain showcased sportsmanship and made a comment stating, “We’re happy that we didn’t say no to Tahlia\u201d. This hypocritical, medically negligent action reveals the white man\u2019s supremacy in such tournaments. The protocols for all athletes should be the same in accordance with the international guidelines and standards. To allow a covid positive meant endangering hundreds of people, along with the athlete itself. This hypocrisy and biased behaviour is no news when it comes to Australia. <\/p>\n

Conclusion <\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a debate about what is ethically right or wrong and the grey area which follows this narrative and hundreds of mouths will have hundred diversified perspectives. The question at the end of the day is not if you win but how you play the cards you\u2019re dealt, with honesty and integrity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
