No Cricket No Trade
In order to neutralize Indian double game, Pakistan must emphasize that ICP (integrated check post) working at Wagah border can’t be allowed (for which India & USA are dying to start its working to allow flow of 2000 trucks per day movement from present rate of 200 trucks per day movement) till such time India restores full fledged cricketing ties with Pakistan (as per the commitment of MMS) and must first send Indian cricket team to Pakistan, for a full fledged tour of 3 Tests, 5 ODI’s & 3 T20 matches series.
We must understand that why even after the commitment of MM Singh with our PM last year in Mohali, for the restoration of cricketing ties between the two countries, what are the Indian motives to back out on their commitment? If they can back out, we can also do the same and this must be very clearly told by our PM to Barack Obama (who has a big stake in restoration of India -Afghanistan trade link through Pakistan, in facilitating India as per the US end game plan of Afghan war), when he meets him in the next few days.
First, they sent terrorists to attack Srilankan team players and then blame us on security issues. Enough is enough. If security for players is an issue, then let it be an issue also for the Indian goods and transports going to and fro to Afghanistan.
Now it’s high time this joke with Pakistan, is stopped forthwith.
Cricket – Mohsin Hassan Khan’s Blunder Costs Probable Victory to Pakistan in Ist Test Against Srilanka At Abu Dhabi
Mr. Mohsin Hasan Khan, must remember that once Mr. Imran Khan said that the best recipe for defeat, is to play for a draw.
At least Pakistan should have given it a try to go for runs, on the last day of the first Test at Abu Dhabi against Srilanka. Moreover, Mr. Mohsin Hassan Khan’s statement that it was decided during the innings break, that Pakistan will decide about the run chase as per the fielding deployment of the opponent team, confirms that firstly, our team management handed over the initiative to the Srilankan team and secondly, Pakistani team fell into the trap of Srilankan fielding plan. Although, Srilankan team could not have bowled out Pakistani team in 21 overs, yet, surely Pakistan had all the chances and cards in their hands, to force a win.
A timid person can be a good player or chief selector, but he can never be a good captain or coach.
Cricket is all played in the mind mate (read Mohsin Hassan Khan). And negative thoughts will never snatch a victory from the jaws of defeat or draw.
