Khan was one of a number of players who threatened not to return to the BBL, a threat also issued by the Afghanistan Cricket Board, which labelled CA's move as "pathetic".
Afghanistan remains the only ICC full member nation without a women's team, having been exempt from the rule that demands having one for inclusion as a Test nation, and has no active women's program."You can only be in support of equality really.
