Bahrain were forced to withdraw from the tournament as they were unable to field a team after a large number of their players were refused visas. Mohammad Nabi, the Afghanistan all-rounder was refused as visa, as was Hong Kong captain Najeeb Amar. Both were later able to gain entry to Kuwait and take part in the later stages of the tournament. The Cricket Association of Nepal President Binay Raj Pandey has said his board intends to raise the issue at the next meeting of the Asian Cricket Council after Nepal vice-captain Gyanendra Malla had been refused entry to the country. In response to this, Pandey intends to ask the ACC not to host future tournaments in countries where obtaining a visa is difficult.CAN to raise visa issue in ACC meeting References 2010 Category:2010 in Kuwaiti sport Category:International cricket competitions in 2010 Category:International cricket competitions in Kuwait
