Shootout in Lahore

Cricketer Of The Year
Afghan people, unless they associate themselves with Taliban, do not have that kind of pathological hatred for India and Indians. Afghanistan and India have friendly ties that go back centuries.
Don't think anyone ought to be saying 'all Afghans think...' or the same for any other ethnicity/nationality.

Terrorists may attack cricketers in India too: Nasim Ashraf

Agree with the PCB ex-chairman that an attack on cricketers is quite possible in India too.
Mostly agree with him on the motivation for the Lahore attack too.

But there would be big differences from the Lahore attack: It will not be for the same motivation and it certainly will not be at the same cost to the terrorists and their masters . The benefit to the terrorists are lower and will be at a cost much much higher than Lahore (second part is easy to assert, since cost of Lahore to date has been essentially zero).

Like Fusion said in another thread - isn't much reason to connect situations in Pakistan to siutations in India. Just leads to a crapfest.

It's possible but why the hell would he bring it up other than to stir ****?
PCB has always been incompetent but the last 2 chairman have taken it to just another level. After his removal he has not been in the news so he might just be trying some attention seeking over here.

Yeah, recall thinking exactly this a few weeks ago. Ijaz Butt and Nasim Ashraf truly are woeful.

Shahryar Khan may not have been faultless (in fairness precious few executives are) but he now looks like a shining beacon of brilliance. Heck, Taquir Zia looks damn good.

Well they now have a new (Super) Advisor in the person of our own Javed Miandad at a salary of one million Pakistani Rupees per month - much more than all those he is supposed to advise it appears.

Wonder why Zardari wants to bring back Miandad at this stage ? Of course we all know that Miandad (his family) has some 'out'standing 'in'-laws :sleep:

Ejaz Butt's cousin Ahmed Mukhtar the guy mainly responsible for getting Butt the hot seat is a part of the Saigol family the same family from which Miandad's wife belongs so the connection is more due to this then any other factor.

It is still a connection with the Don. Who was the match maker is not what matters. Miandad is hot property.

Whatever the connection does not mater all we will see in the next 2-3 months he will throw another tantrum and call it quits and the cycle keeps repeating itself.

What happened to all that BS Miandad was spouting about how he was a honourable man and would do the work for no payment at all if given full powers? :laugh:

Full powers that would let him control the finances? :ph34r:

I'd work for free too if I was allowed to fudge the books.
