Questions for Pakistan and Sri Lanka
I just hope there would be cricketing logic and reasons for any team to win the WT20. No emotional bullying should be done. Whosoever will win, will do it on the basis of its cricketing skills and tactics. Dedicating the trophy to somebody or some event is fine, but saying we were deserved winners cos we didnt play cricket for X years or months would be aghast. Subcontinental teams have this tendency to over hype the things.
Two years back India won the inaugral WT20 and entire nation rejoiced cos it had seen the despairity of the WC2007. They wanted a victory and they got it. Since then to now, Indians hardly did anything wrong. And this wrong step and Indian players were again put on a pedestal by inept media and even inept ex-cricketers. If India would have retained the title, nobody would have gone ahead and attributed the victory to 11/26. Though Sachin did that for the Chennai win., that was wrong imo.
No amount of cricket win can compensate for the tragedy of such a huge intensity like LTTE war or 11/26 or the so called war agains terror in Pakistan.
I would also be keen to watch the reactions of Younis Khan, Imran Khan and Javed Miandad if Pakistan wins T20. Would Younis continue to say T20 is fun and WWF cricket ? Would Javed and his rival Imran Khan continue to write off T20 ? And what joking statement would Ijaz Butt give? And what happens to PCB administration which i hope wont turn square and would turn effecient? What happens to Pakistan cricket? Will it continue to perform good one day, best the other and ridiculous the next ? How would they perform in Sri Lanka series and the CT series ? Will they be a force in ODIs and Tests which would matter in the long picture ? They are langering in the bottom of this two old formats.
How will they take the WC11 hosting issue ? Will the possible win force Butt to go and give even stupid statements in the media and make a further joke of himself and PCB?
For SL, it would remain how they would turn around their poor ODI record after their possible triumph. How long would Jaisurya continue to play? take him out and SL opening remains a poor cog for the team. None of the openers tried have succeeded untill Sanga or Dilshan opened. But then is it long term solution? Similar to what India did with Mr Useless. SL bowling evokes massive orgasm from cricketing viewers, but what about batting. Except Dilshan, Mahela, Sanga and Jaya their batting looks brittle. They havent really exploded and went beyond 160 in any of the games after league game against WI.
Whosoever wins, would be good for the cricket in their country. But the intensity of 2007 would forever be missing in this tourney just cos the BLUES and the YELLOWS have lost. As in India and Australia. These 2 teams remain the top teams of the international cricket in terms of quality, entertainment and skills. Yeah yeah call me names but then i havent reeled anybody. People have choices. Homer has anything Indian, anything mumbaian his choice. Damith has SL as his choice, Q has Pakistan as his choice, Raj has Tamil Nadu and CSK as his choice. And me the devil blogger has India and Australia as his choices. So when everybody has his own choice and they stand by their choices, why just single me for criticism.
I am a fan of T20 and to my surprise I enjoyed last year’s IPL tournament. I have been unable to watch this year’s tournament because my concern is that Pakistan and its cricketers are being systematically marginalised by certain elements of the international cricket community. The removal of Pakistan’s champions from the planned T20 Champions League tournament is further evidence to support that view. I find it hard to watch tournaments from which Pakistan’s players have been deliberately excluded.
Contradictions. Paradoxes.
Kamran, you enjoyed last year’s IPl cos Pakistan players were part of it and likes of afridi were busy fighting with VVS. You liked then. This year your own PPP government banned your players crossing Wagah to play in India cos the ………………..(obvious reasons). So now you dont like IPL.
Damn you man. Pakistan was removed from CT hostage, World cup hostage and now RBC(S) cup champs are kicked out of CL later this year. Rather than pointing this to India or BCCI, go find whats happening in your country. Bombs in Lahore, Peshawar, Islamabad and every where. What do you expect ? More attacks like SL on world cricket teams ?
You guys blame India for everything that goes wrong with your cricket, but when it comes to eating a cake of riches, you want to be part of CL or IPL. When your players aint a part of IPL or CL, you hate it. Your cricket players meet with Modi, ex-players call IPL a tamasha. Rameez Raja blames IPL first and then bares his soul in IPL with some ridiculous commentary (along side other commentators).
Your players wanted to be part of ICL. Another Indian thing. Fascination for India doesnt go. You think you can kick us in the back, call us money brokers or whatever, you feel and then you want us to come back and embrace you in IPL or CL.
Say more of this stuff and I am sure BCCI wont pay heed to any PCB requests to help itself out of its mess. Remember BCCI is all powerful with money in its kitty. PCB doesnt have sanity, logic, pratical sense and moreover the money. So if you want us to help you out, keep your damned mouth shut and pack off Butt, Miandad to Swat.
Miandad ka muh band karao, 50 paise inaam pao
“I have realized now that everything can be bought with the power of money. India with the power of its money has earned the support from all stakeholders and we find no one who could listen and support us,”
You should say listen and support me, Javed Blabber Miandad. Not us dude. I guess you should be moving with a clown hat and a tape on your mouth. Enough of it son. You just proving you are a lampoon. Pakistan’s Shrikhand.
SP says it with full humor ji. Cost to keep himself quiet. Nothing in this birth ji. he has had this banter against Indians since his playing days. When he used to come to bat, he used to sledge Indians. Thanks the Indians were fickle minded those days, they caved in. This age no one gives an rat’s ASS to this dude.

More rants.
I believe Pakistan has banned its players from touring India owing to whatever (obvious) reasons, so how come BCCI has a fault here. Speak to MMS dude. MMS as in the Prime minister of India.
Miandad praises IPL

I crack up. I wonder what to say. For him everything Indian is joke including the country. For me he is a joker. Remember 1992 or 1982 when he almost beat Dennis Lilli. Two snaps above testify for it.
Javed bhai,
badi gustakhi se kehna pad raha hai ki aapke mulq ke cricketers aapse mel nahi khate. kuch afraz(d) modi se milke IPL me khelna chahte hai kyuki abhi IPL SA me khela jaa raha hai. Kya aap un par koi ban lagwane ki koshish karenge? Un afraz ke naam hai — Akmal, Tanvir, Gul and sabke pyare Akhtar…
Waise bhai aapka bahut shukriya hume hasane ke liye aur muft manoranjan karne ke liye.
Wow.
That was in Hindi cos Javed is English challenged. It just said that many of his own countrymen cricketers dont concur with him on IPL. Few of them have gone ahead and decided to meet LM to seek options to play in IPL.
Keep them coming Javed, I enjoy your chauvinism just like I do for Desi version of yours (Mumbai version). The video versions of this are:

Ass on fire : Miandad and Ijaz Butt
Pakistani Chuck plays on
I think Pakistan needs to be set right here. Somebody got to sit with the mindless duo of PCB and warn them up left right and center to stop this bullshitting and fuckin crying foul. Pakistan has them all – Talibanis, Illegal bowlers, crying babies who are 50+ year old and of course Javed Miandad who feels that security in all 4 countries hosting WC 11 is whore. Ever since the country was carved out in 1947 it has been crying foul on Indians. Politically, physically, sportily and in almost every almost aspect.
Soulberry has written an excellent article on moaning and cribbing of Inti Alam on Ajam reporting.. Akram Ajam if in terms of IPL fake blogger. I would suggest some ICC boss sit with PCB and warn them stringently on this self pity crying.
Pakistan breathes back to cricket…
Yes No Yes No Yes no
In out in out in Out
Director no director director advisor
ICL no ICL IPL no IPL legal suit ICL ICL freezed…
ICL players in ICL players dropped….
Thats Pakistan cricket for you. Dynamic, interesting and maverick. The director point is for Javed Miandad who was captain and not captain ‘n’ times in his playing career. He retired many times, came back and retired. ICL no ICL analogy is for Youhana or Yousuf, whatever you like. ICL players taken in for T20 World cup, next day dropped. One day Ijaz Butt is asking teams to tour the country, next day a bomb goes off, he distracts.
Imran Khan retired, came back, retired. So did Razzaq, Afridi, Waqar and countless other desi cricketers. The only legend Pakistan cricket has had with some dignity was Wasim Akram though he too had his stints with match fixing, drugs and dissent within the team. He was iconic. He had performance to back him. Till he was playing, Pakistan team looked dangerous. Post him they have been a touch better than minnows.
Younis Khan is miffed on Ponting being dropped / rested from the Pak series. Fair enough. Its cricket by luck for Pakistan this days.
I think the sight of Akram from one end and ever running Waqar Younis would never be repeated in Pakistan cricket ever. What this generation saw in 90s and early 2000′s was something of a delight. And yes now its time Pakistan gets rid of Shoaib Akhtar forever.
Series predictions for Aus – Pak:
3-2 Australia if Aussies play like the last 2 ODIs in SA including today.
5-0 if they are real self and Roy, Binga fire.
Sissy Babies…
Javed Miandad has to say this:
“I made it clear at the meeting to the Chairman (Ejaz Butt) that we must demand a ban on Broad for his remarks which are aimed at isolating Pakistan cricket. When he came for the one-day series with Sri Lanka he was satisfied with the security. But despite my insistence then he had said he could not comment on the security publicly as the ICC didn’t allow match officials to give statements. Yet he had no problems making fun of the security and our brave policemen at a news conference on returning home,”
Tauqir Zia has to say this:
“He has tried to damage Pakistan cricket’s image with his criticism about the security arrangements. How can he make these remarks when six policemen lost their lives trying to protect the visiting team and officials”.
And the ever affable Izaj Butt has to say this:
“The council agreed that we need to review the security plan which is implemented for visiting teams and to beef it up further. But everyone admitted it is going to take some time and convincing by the board to get teams to tour Pakistan again.
Saying this the esteemed personalities of Pakistan cricket forgot that their reputation has nullified and today no sane person wants to tour their country for cricket. Noone knows from where the terror would strike. And when Broad, Murali and Taufel said that security was lax, then there has got to be some truth in it. And if rather than working with the govt to fix the security issues, this high profile gentlemen spend their time to get their team boycott Broad, then they would just fool themselves and dent the Pakistan cricket even further. PCB has been acting like a sissy child whose candy has been robbed forcibly (read terrorists). And this one example provides the same instance of the crying act.
Childish Miandad
“Security situation in Indian is also not very good. But despite this our players are playing in ICL and IPL. So it was imperative that Indians keep up the sporting exchanges with Pakistan.
While Pakistan is thinking positively for India, what message Indians are sending around the world by cancelling their hockey team’s tour to Pakistan? The participation of our players in ICL and IPL is not mandatory but they are honoring their commitments…..”
Javed Miandad quotes on possibility of cancellation of India ‘s Pakistan tour early next year. He has been a lose tounged man and has often puked out verbal diarrohea, but this one goes even beyond that. I am not bothered about political situation in India or Pakistan and neither this is biased or partial post as few people might feel. But equating Indian situation to Pakistan is rubbish and uncalled for when it comes to security. And whom is Miandad kidding ? Are Pakistan players playing in ICL or IPL representing their country ? ICL players are in here from Pakistan for their selfish vested interests and of course money is a huge factor in here. When the likes of Yousuf can ditch their national career for ICL, then what do we expect out of other lesser players of Pakistan.
Can you imagine any Indian player ditching his national side to play for ICL ? Forget the fringe players. Have the likes of VVS Laxman ditched Indian colors for ICL when he can also claim like Yousuf that he wasn’t treated well after missing out the ODI tourneys and T20s ? Some sense should prevail in the likes of Miandad when it comes to speak of other security situation in India. A balanced outlook is essential, but then was he ever famous for balanced outlook. A player which took cricket field with a war like attitude can never be expected to speak sense. I remember fiery statements of the likes of Miandad and Imran Khan during those one sided favored Friday finals in Sharjah when Pakistan took field with 13 players (umps)…When they said Kashmir should be decided on result of Sharjah. Come lets decide Kashmir now on basis of previous tour results and games ? Makes sense ? No, sounds rubbish isn’t it ?
And it doesn’t make any sense for India’s team to act brotherly and go to Pakistan when no other team is going to tour the troubled land. We don’t have to risk our players by sending them to Pakistan and aint Indians the natural targets of terror groups ? Aint they ? Cross me for this, but I don’t see any sense in going to Pakistan and scrapping tour would actually be helpful for Pakistan as they would avoid a whitewash in both ODIs (0-5) and Tests (0-3). With current buoyant Indian team and after trumping Aussies, its but natural that Pakistan would be a no-hopper for India…And for that matter Mendis’s SL too…..
