Sri Lanka to become Pakistan cricket's new home?

[Gollum]

Hope for a 5 test series against Pakistan in Sri Lanka. Lanka is producing the best pitches these days and is just a 1 hour flight away from Bengaluru. Come on Modiji, make it happen, we need to correct the test H2H.

So Come out side and show us. We have never seen that India winning out side home.Winning at home doesn't exactly mean they should be the No1.

Apparently it was good enough for Pakistan...

No. It should never happen. No bilateral series with Pakistan anywhere unless they clean their act. They still haven't prosecuted and punished the 26/11 perpetrators. How can we forget that 100+ Indian citizens lost their lives with nobody being held accountable or punished for that crime? Would you push for Ind-Pak bilateral series had you lost a near & dear one in that act or in any other terrorist act since then?

I want us to make 9-12 into 13-12 man. No matches in Pakistan or India, no IPL for them. Only tests in neutral countries.

I don't really care and who really cares about 9-12 or 40-60 (or whatever it is) anymore? Do you know what India's head-to-head record against WI is? i'm sure WI must be edging it as well but should we play against WI to even it out? I say no. We've moved on and I'm more concerned about beating the best - Aus, SA & Eng - than to worry about some bilateral series records.

 

It's almost like Uruguay trolling Spain that they have more WCs in soccer. Sure they may have but Uruguay won those tourneys in 30s whereas Spain is the powerhouse for the last 30 odd years.

India's tour stats in the Aus & SA this millenium:  4 wins, 8 Draws, and 13 losses.   Not great, but looks positively fantastic next to the greenbros - 1 solitary win in SA (2007), and a whopping 16 losses.  Zero draws.  Loss percentage for Pak - 94%, India's is 52%.  

 

94% of the time, Pak loses tests in Aus and SA - We know its 100% in Australia.   And these greenbros have the nerve to talk about India's record away from home.

As I said Indian cricket has moved on from the earlier small-time mentality of comparing themselves against poorer teams. India and Indian fans need to look to winning series in Aus and SA - anything else is a failure. Winning ICC tourneys and winning in Aus & SA should be what our objective and expectations should be, not winning bi-laterals against Pakistan, WI or SL.

Food for thought: Wouldn't it have been more PROFITABLE had they decided to play BD in BD and make BD their home venue for WTV series? Win Win for both parties ... Bunch of jokers

the thing is I 'personally' don't have any issue whatsoever for u to discuss anything anywhere but its YOUR LOGIC which I find everywhere in this site whether its cricket, BCCI, politics, religion, social issues or ANYTHING, always see the response:

Why its an issue or concern for any Pakistani and how a Pakistani can even discuss this indian issue...

 

so following exactly the Same Logic, Question remains there, how a news that Pakistan playing with BD in SL instead of UAE, can be an issue or anything to discuss for indians? @Texan @Adi_91 @Malcolm Merlyn Pak aur BD janay, UAE janay ya SL janay...

Because it is an "Indian Cricket Fans" forum and we discuss any topics concerning India or concerning cricket and about the World. Never seen a Pakistani poster discuss about the atrocities Pakistani Muslims hurl at their Hindus and Christians but a stray incident or two in India and you have people like @KeyboardWarrior jumping on to create a scene. Why don't you guys just discuss it in your forum? I don't have a problem if it is a stray thread here and there, but every little incident is highlighted as some kind of Hindu-Muslim war by you guys and showing Muslims as some innocent victims. Well, guess what... look around the World and get a reality check. 

[Texy]

Although UK would have been perfect "home" base for Pak cricket..don't think ECB will let Pak anywhere near them after the trio episode

Shoot Sri Lankans in your home, then make Sri Lanka your home.

The biggest thing that amuses me is that these pakistanis fail to see the irony when they try to talk about atrocities or inequalities in India. 

I mean pakistan is the biggest $hithole in south Asia ( or maybe even the world), it's a land created based on religion, it has no history or culture of its own, these idiots are the biggest hypocrites on this planet, they are racist, religious fundamentalist, a safe haven for terrorists, they have a history of committing genocide on their own citizens due to which they lost bangladesh, there is no democracy or rule of law in pakistan, they have almost completely annihilated their minorities, their constitution doesn't even allow a non muslim to become president of pak , they have the most decadent society on this planet, they are morally corrupt to the core BUT Still they have the gall and audacity to question INDIA on the values of equality, secularism and DEMOCRACY LMAO. Irony dies a thousand deaths every time a pakistani tries to question Indian on moral values

Yes because Pak cricketers play cricket with grenades tucked in their underpants?

It's not about Pak cricketers. It's about a matter of principle and sending the same consistent message. At the bare minimum I would like 26/11 perpetrators brought to book and punished before any bilateral series.

UAE is very expensive. Paying for players in 5 star hotels in dhiram currency is unaffordable.

 

Sri Lanka is much more affordable, plus a decent crowd can be expected for test games compared to UAE.

We don't even play in UAE during summers. It's just too damn hot there, Cricket season in UAE is October to March

More apt reason is PCB  were told off for fixing PSL matches by UAE law enforcement agencies.
