Why? They wouldn’t have held a minute had they played bilaterally. What impact did he have on these two nations? India wouldn’t be holding a minute’s silence if a (non uber-famous) Aussie passed

Rude. The World Cup is in India. They’ve decided to mark his passing with a minute silence at the next match played. That’s called paying respect.

When Shane Warne and Rod Marsh Passed away last year, teams from England, West Indies, Bangladesh and South Africa paid respect with a minute silence before their matches.
