On 19th March, 2015, during the Quarter Final match between Bangladesh vs India in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, Bangladesh was eliminated from the tournament only because of financial profit that ICC gains from India. This really created a new horizon of corruption in international cricket. Previously no team ever was a victim of so many biased decisions.

Cricket is always said to be a Gentleman's game. But this current India-ICC corruption really takes the Gentleman's game on the verge of extinction. It is losing its popularity at an increasingly alarming rate and still ICC only cares about the financial profits that are mostly gained from India.

If United Nations designates 19th March as "International Cricket Corruption Day" it will really help to bring more transparency in the game, raises human awareness about sports corruption and will again make cricket a Gentleman's game.
