Former England cricketer criticizes U.S. visa delays ahead of the T20 World Cup.
A former England cricketer has criticized the United States for visa delays that have disrupted preparations for the upcoming T20 World Cup, which the U.S. is co-hosting with the West Indies.
The player, who was not named in the report, described the situation as chaotic and called out the host nation for failing to process visas in a timely manner for players, officials, and support staff.
The visa issues have affected multiple teams, with some players and staff reportedly unable to travel or facing last-minute hurdles before the tournament begins next month.
The T20 World Cup is set to be held across several venues in the U.S. and the Caribbean, marking the first time a major ICC event is partially staged in the United States.
