over whether the tournament is going to go ahead and it is likely, not definite, but likely that the iccrobably to 2022, because next year india is hosting the event and it is unlikely that india will want to swa p unlikely that india will want to swap places. i see. 0bviously that leaves a gap in the schedule if that postponement is announced. are there any ideas about what could feel that? well, there are reports that the indian cricket board is planning on moving the ipl, indian premier league, the richest cricket competition in the world with $1.6 billion last year, normally takes place in the springtime. there are reports ofa springtime. there are reports of a plan to move it into that window once the announcement is made that the t20 cricket world cup is going to be cancelled. it is for that one of the places the world cup could be held in that time window is the uae because of the infrastructure in time zones and guaranteed weather. and also because the uae has one of the shortest quarantine periods in the world for players arriving from the risk countries — seven days. he woke up

league will qualify automatically for that tournament and what we should see is a continuation of this iccportance and context to every single match is that is played. so it starts with england against ireland in southampton on thursday, and england have named their squad for that one day series? they have indeed, a couple of surprises in there as well, david willey and rhys topley are the standout names. rhys topley hasn't played for england since 2016, but he is back in the squad now. david willie of course missed out on world cup selection despite being... joe denly is in the side as a batsman. he was dropped from the england test side during the west indies series and it is worth noting that a number of the big—name players you might expect to see playing in 50 over cricket won't be present as they prepare for the test series between england and pakistan. this condensed, meaning that the likes of ben stokes, joe root, chopper archer, they all miss out. an interesting —looking squad, all gets under way with three matches, starting in southampton on thursday. we look forward to that. tha

that was a really contested decision, and then separately, at the icc, the international criminal courtin the hague, you mentioned comments about trump selling out the uighur minority. two uighur groups have come forward a claim at the icc in which they're arguing that forced deportations of individuals from countries that are signatory of the court to china, where there are allegations of internment camps, really significant. we spoke to the lead lawyer on this and asked whether the u.s. sanctions would help his case. >> these tips that have been taken by the u.s. administration to sanction chinese officials are immensely important because they are based on evidence about human rights violations being committed. those are the very violations we're asking the prosecutor to investigate, and she could seek that underlying evidence as part of the investigation. she could use it and develop it, so it's so important that these various steps have been taken in different ways to insure that the circle is being closed. and that those responsible can't escape out of it. >> of course, the chinese

these are just some of the charges wrought forward against him who is being tried it today at the iccnow the man himself, an alleged member of an extremist group from 2012 until early 2013, this man says the charges are not serious enough to be dealt with at a global court. witnesses say the man was not only a member, but a defective chief of the islamic police that enforced a system of fear under the very strict law. he is not thehe first suspect to be tried at this court. a former member has been sentenced to nine years in prison in 201616. this trial may take longer for pragmatic reasons. due to the global p pandemic, certain witnesses cannot travel. the entirire case may onlnly leo a short note i in west africa. let alone in a country which is currently in the midst of a turmoil and violent up peoplple against the governmentnt. ss protests for weeks, demanding the resisignation of e prpresident, the man who hasas n in office since e 2013. but so far, was not able to effectctively contain the violee in the country and bring terrorism and interethnic violence to a halt. brent: fanny

icc, you're on. >> hi. i have two questions. one for dr. shaw.ant to know how the plushy cases taught in law school. what are the lessons or legal issues that you want students to learn from the plessy case? just the prominence that it has in law school curriculum. what role does it have? what ideas are you trying to bring across to the students? and then the other question, is how are people jurors today, who defined themselves as strict constructionists, how do they view the policy how do decision? >> they interpret it? how did they wrestle with it in their mind with the point of view being strictly constructionist? >> with respect to the first question, i was taught in law school that it depends on who's teaching it. i know when i was in law school a long time ago, we were certainly taught that plessy was not a decision that the court made which stood up overtime although, after brown v. board of education was decided in the 19 fifties, 1954, there were scholars who said that policy was in fact decided on grounds that were pretty solid. brown'

however, one of the provisions also says that the icc, the international covenant of political rightshall continue to be respected in hong kong, and that potentially should serve as a guide to interpret ing the clauses. there's a direct contradiction, a vague clause should be interpreted so as to comply and the u.n. human rights committee has repeatedly held that national security cannot be used as a basis to quash peaceful advocacy for multiparty democracy, constitutional change, et cetera. but we don't know whether the hong kong courts will be able to interritory the law because the law is silent on that fact and we know that the standing committee has the overriding power of interpretation. so it's going to be difficult to know until we see actual cases that there's real danger that the chinese government will use their overly broad definitions to capture peaceful advocacy and to prosecute people for peaceful advocac advocacy. >> so then is it your assessment that it will be the hong kong officials who will have the power to interpret and implement the newly released national secur
