The International Cricket Council has become the latest sports body to ban transgender players from the elite women’s game if they have gone through male puberty.

The ICC said it had taken the decision, following an extensive scientific review and nine-month consultation, to “protect the integrity of the international women’s game and the safety of players”.

It joins rugby union, swimming, cycling, athletics and rugby league, who have all gone down a similar path in recent years after citing concerns over fairness or safety.

      If that’s your opinion after I took the time to read your sources and responded adequately in a thorough to why they don’t conclude trans women shouldn’t compete in womens sports, then I don’t think anything can change your mind. Those are highschool records, if they’re broken records then provide reasons as to why you think that.
