After the faux indignation of Pakistani players, board and sports ministers at the "snub" of being ignored at the IPL auction, Indian cricket needs to go much further in freezing cricket relations between the countries.
Surprise, surprise! Indian businesses have decided they are not interested in paying megabucks to the nationals of a country which trains and funds terrorists to attack it.
Indian public don't want to see these players making big money playing in India. Who can blame them?
Yet, Pakistani cricketers -- the same ones who waste no opportunity to bad-mouth IPL, as Afridi did a few weeks back -- are shocked when they are not paid a fortune by Indians to come and play in India.
Their cricket board, always pretending to "ban" their players from participating in the Indian league which is by far the most lucrative in the history of cricket, now loudly demand that their players be included.
India needs to go much further than laugh off this faux indignation.
India must stop playing Pakistan at all levels of cricket -- Tests, ODIs, U19 or any other engagement in the sport.
Until Pakistan punishes individuals and organizations accountable for 26/11, India must place a total ban on cricket between the two countries.
Shah Well, that is one way for India to avoid losing to Pakistan. Too bad that India did not try this strategy in the U19 WC QF.
No one cares about the U19 WC in India. Unless of course the team wins the trophy, in which case it becomes big news. So enjoy the win, but we don't really mind the QF loss to Pak
India - World Cup winners 2011!!!
Champions Trophy winners 2013!!!
Congrats to Indian team and all Indian fans!
We all know U-19 was a crapshoot after the rains...
Anyway, Shah and his kind know that India is basically doing Pakistan a favor by not playing them... as Pakistan would be whipped badly by the current Indian team...
Just imagine this: a Pakistani cricketer playing for the Mumbai IPL team.
Mumbai - which has been terrorized and its important landmarks destroyed by Pakistani terrorists, over a hundred of its residents murdered, many more wounded.
Terrorists led by Pakistanis whom the Pakistani government and courts refuse to punish. Whom they actually protect!
Could Mumbaikars tolerate seeing a Pakistani playing for Mumbai?
Wow! What a mentality? How courteous, hospitable, tolerant people are you! I am impressed. You have really progressed a lot. A handful of terrorists which are curse for the region as a whole are succeeding in fulfilment of their dream and they will enjoy the raining of Ghauris and Agnis across the border. Pause and be sensible. Come to Pak and see the reality. Dont forget our hospitality in 2004. How can you!
wah Wow! What a mentality? How courteous, hospitable, tolerant people are you! I am impressed.
Obviously you can not be courteous, hospitable, tolerant to people who are courteous, hospitable and tolerant to terrorists..
If Pakistan people tolerate their leaders help these terrorist to kill innocent civilians and not say anything against it or protest it, they will pay the price later. There is no such thing as innocent bystanders.
You have really progressed a lot.
A handful of terrorists which are curse for the region as a whole are succeeding in fulfilment of their dream and they will enjoy the raining of Ghauris and Agnis across the border.
You are talking as if these people just jumped from Mars. No, They are homegrown. Has any Pakistani admitted that what they are doing is wrong and it will bring the whole region down.
We are all not that proud of shivsena and not afraid to say so.
Pause and be sensible.
That is what India has done for all these years. It has tolerated too many attacks without taking any action.
Come to Pak and see the reality. Don't forget our hospitality in 2004. How can you!
We don't have to come and see what is happening there. If you visit any Pakistani/Indian house the hospitality will be the same. But what the country does as whole is what counts.
Every notable personality and common person in Pakistan condemns every form of terrorism be it sectarian, fanatic-religious or state terrorism. The differece is some want to spread hatred to further their political goals and show their hagemonic superiority and others just are portrayed so demonisingly that they are left explaining which is refleced as if they are the culprits rather than actually being victims.

Wah...until recently State sponsered terrorism was supported quite a bit in Pakistan....among Military elite, among Mullahs, and among many civilians...and these people fed the Monster...
Now the Monster is turning on them, and they are condemning terrorism...
Look, none of the Pakistani players condemned or even expressed regret about, the terrorist actions in Mumbai.
Pakistani government denied for far too long that the terrorists were their citizens, even in the face of overwhelming evidence.
Pakistan Supreme Court openly favored the terrorists and continues to do so, letting them off the hook at every turn on the slightest technicalities. Even house arrests of the ringleaders were disallowed.
What message does all this send to the average Indian? That Pakistanis as a whole support their terrorists.
State terrorism is still going on everywhere but more so in Gaza and IHK.
Courts need solid evidence. Hue and cry in media and blame game by Indian govt is not court evidence. Whole Pak nation supported you over Mumbai but response was pathetic. Mind it, it is yet to be proved even by indian court who was behind Qasab and whether he is the main culprit despite the fact that he was arrested from the crime scene. How can our court sentence someone without solid proof?
I think let the politicians decide what they want. Politics should not be mixed with sports after all we are not at open-war with each other neither we want one.And we do not have two Ws so don't be afraid to play because you are more likely to win!
We are victims of terrorism more than any one else in the world. We do not expect support from India as we are aware they are oppertunistic and will stab us in the back whenever they could but this blame game will lead us to mutual destruction. God forbid...
ha ha - it didnt take long to wah to show his true colours. His court is looking for solid evidences now. either you are not following court case or you are royally ignoring the investigations so far. So first read the investigation that is available everywhere unlike your country where everything happens under the carpet. Once you read it and still dont see the tanvir (that is light in arabic), you will have only proven what has already been proven. You last post also shows you lack of common knowledge about how the court works anywhere.
wah State terrorism is still going on everywhere but more so in Gaza and IHK.
First you said Pakistan does not support terrorists, now you say state terrorism is going on everywhere..make up your mind.
Courts need solid evidence. Hue and cry in media and blame game by Indian govt is not court evidence. Whole Pak nation supported you over Mumbai but response was pathetic. Mind it, it is yet to be proved even by indian court who was behind Qasab and whether he is the main culprit despite the fact that he was arrested from the crime scene. How can our court sentence someone without solid proof?
of course courts need sold evidence. But your government first denied kasab was not a Pakistani Citizen. then did not allow any reporters to go to his village. They even made the villagers to say there is nobody called kasab.
even one month ago, your own country reporter accused your government saying that they are dragging him to the court on false allegations because he helped the foreign reporters to identify kasab.
You see, in other countries they don't deliberately destroy the evidence when they are serious about convicting the accused.
Is that what you mean by the whole Pakistan govt supported us. and you are annoyed by our 'pathetic' response ?
I think let the politicians decide what they want.
So it is the evil politicians now !! yeah.. keep shifting the blame..
In democracies, people decide what they want.
Politics should not be mixed with sports after all we are not at open-war with each other neither we want one.
what if some terrorists kill few thousand people, after all are we are not at war..eh?
And we do not have two Ws so don't be afraid to play because you are more likely to win!
losing a game and people getting killed are two different things..and nobody cares about the former.
We are victims of terrorism more than any one else in the world.
when terrorists die when making the bomb, then they are the victims are terrorism..yeah right!
We do not expect support from India as we are aware they are oppertunistic and will stab us in the back whenever they could but this blame game will lead us to mutual destruction. God forbid...
after all this you want support from India?? well, we will gladly help you to kill the terrorists if you are interested..
"Everyday we blame Pakistan, everyday Pakistan blames us. It is an issue," Khan, who had five players from Pakistan playing for KKR in IPL's first edition, said.
Khan felt that the youth should circumvent all that is said about India and Pakistan by the politicians and say, "It (Pakistan) is a great neighbour to have. We are great neighbours, They are good neighbours. Let us love each other."
"Let me be honest. My family is from Pakistan, my father was born there and his family is from there," he said.
SRK is simply trying to get some cheap publicity for his movie...
But his attitude is the OSTRICH head in sand approach that most "elite" Indians seem to take...especially those living in India... NRIs are much more sanguine about the true nature of Pakistan...
SRK is a Pakisstany, his family is from Pakisstan, and he should go back to Pakisstan as Bal Thakrey-bhau has rightly pointed out. He should be deported in the first PIA roach-infested flight from Mumbai to Karachi.
Speaking of Pakisstan's sponsorhip of terrorism, now those same terrorist coackroaches they sponsored are eating Pakisstan from inside...
