The chairman of the International Cricket Council finally broke his silence over the drama that unfolded ahead of the recently concluded T20 World Cup. Speaking at an award ceremony, Jay Shah, without mentioning any names, took a sly dig at Pakistan and Bangladesh and said, ''This ICC World Cup was very important because there was a lot of chatter before the start of the tournament about whether certain teams would participate and how the World Cup would go ahead. As ICC chairman, I can say that no team is bigger than the organisation and no single team makes an organisation. Jay Shah also talked about how the recently concluded T20 World Cup shattered all viewership records and added, ''The World Cup has shattered all viewership records. Meanwhile, Team India successfully defended its T20 World title and won the World Cup for the record third time after the Men in Blue defeated New Zealand in the finals in Ahmedabad.
