CSA MUST NOT BRING SHAME ON NELSON MANDELA’s COUNTRY

CRICKET SOUTH AFRICA MUST KNOW THAT THEIR SELF RESPECT AND INSULT IS IN THIER OWN HANDS

The following news reported TODAY by the ESPNcricinfo, if true, at least proves one thing that the South African cricket board, acting like a prostitute; has in a shameful manner, traded its honour, integrity, sovereignty and independence just for money, to be earned by an Indian cricket team’s short tour, by accepting the dictation of the BCCI, to send its own CEO Haroon Lorgat, on a long leave.

It looks that the day is not far off, when Cricket South Africa, in its avarice for earning more and more money, will change its nomenclature to Board of Control for Cricket in India & South Africa, (BCCI & SA).

ESPNcricinfo news:-

The BCCI president N Srinivasan and his CSA counterpart Chris Nenzani have “in principle agreed” for India to play three ODIs, a warm-up game and two Tests in South Africa in December, ESPNcricinfo understands. Although no formal statements have been released by the boards, some progress appears to have been made, two days after CSA offered to send “Lorgat on long leave”.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is oppressed.” The Prophet was asked: “It is right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?” He replied: “By preventing him from oppressing others.”

Australia beat India in a jail break style, by four wickets in the3rd ODI played at Mohali.

Over all, it was a thriller and India had ascendency in the match during 90% of the game.
