It is just cricket I am not saying such things are exclusive to Pak, even in Ind, we have extremists who would proclaim that BCCI break away from ICC at the drop of a hat. Pakistanis and Indians do more harm to their respective countries than any outside force. A lot of Indian fans on social media are horrendous tbf. I’ve been accused of racism and supporting colonialism on there just for being an Englishman sticking up for our players and making a joke about Anderson and Ronaldo (the GOATs) being in the same locality before the Test that never was Edited September 20, 2021 by YCCC bsriharsha and G_B_ 1 1 Link to comment

They abuse even Indian fans when Kohli is mocked, worse with fan armies of Bollywood stars and BTS (K-pop group). Also some don't understand British sarcasm, humor...by 'some' I mean millions, not being well versed in English too can be a reason. Hindi SM is usually more light-hearted and full of memes, humor, self-deprecating posts, and I am sure it is the same with other regional languages like Bengali, Punjabi, Malayalam, Tamil etc. When it isn't your mother tongue, more chance of misunderstanding, overextending, taking slight over trivial things and hence people may try to overcompensate, be rude or aggressive.

mishra Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 (edited) What kind of thought must be going through ex PCB chief Ehsan Mani whom Kali dal replaced with Ramiz. Any views from him anywhere? It just took a fortnight for Rameez bhai to undo all the hard work of Mr Mani.

Arnab is a rock star, puts asses on seats more than any cricketer or movie star. When there are other important developments he manages to make it all about himself. Republic once went an entire month with prime time debates only about him. Face of Indian TV, just look at the volume of memes he generates on a daily basis, every 3rd meme is something related to Arnab or comedy on Republic TV. Desi Trump or Simon Cowell with a little bit of Gordon Ramsay somewhere, talking only about the TV personality bit ....has made news similar to attitude era WWF shows. Oscar worthy segments And don't tell me you aren't entertained So much content out there, thanks to Arnab Indian news broadcast has become number one source of entertainment (and no news!!!!!). Channels like Peeing Human have 100s of videos about our prime time masterpieces. Edited September 20, 2021 by Gollum Lord, mishra, raki05 and 3 others 1 1 4 Link to comment

You as a mod should know He may not be allways righ(afterall human) I kind of see his fight with Mumbai Police chief and Thakares and Sonia and Pawar and rest of media ( taking on all 5 parallely) as most daring in modern media history. Its a miracle that he survived it allthough, I can see that he has toned down since then. His network has been suspended in UK.

I am ready to get hate from a lot of progressive types and others for this but always thought there was an account handler behind his tweets just like most celebrities have. I mean looking at a guy with a huge pious and pure beard and having such a great sense of humor, there was something weird about that. Felt there was a disconnect.Didn’t want to say it. Also whenever I saw his interviews etc his Twitter personality didn’t reflect either. Seemed like a regular joe analyst like Akash Chopra, Murali Karthik etc. I am not going to totally call him an agent or a traitor for this tweet. That was a reasonable opinion and he has the right to express it as a citizen of a free and democratic country. Edited September 20, 2021 by maniac kirkutfan and Lord 2 Link to comment

Austin 3:!6 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Well, truth is England could have easily gone to Pakistan since they were only slated to play 2 T20s. At max they would have spend 1 night in a Pak hotel. Unlike NZ, it was not a full tour. Lord 1 Link to comment

I am assuming most of us at some point have but I guess you never have. Having said that how many mullah looking funny social media celebrities do you know? It’s a different thing how seriously Jaffer takes his religion, I don’t know but he does rock that ever growing beard and not in a hipster kind of way one expects from his tweets.

Pak and WI toured England last year during pandemic before vaccines. England owes so much to both Pak and WI. Least ECB could do is not cancel the reciprocal tours. There are no winners when cricket is cancelled. Terrible timing. He is just rubbing more Link to comment
Gollum Posted September 20, 2021 Author Share Posted September 20, 2021 Hope Jaffer doesn't get hate, but not optimistic cos SM can be brutal. His choice of words could have been better, and of course the timing was bad....terror threat is serious and after what happened to SL in 2009, no wonder some boards will be extra cautious especially if they get certain kind of intel signals/reports. Life is more important than sports, and if something bad happens to even one member of touring party, it can have serious ramifications (political, social) back home. If NZ made it all the way to Pak, stayed and trained there for a week, and had to pull out last minute there must have been some serious security threat. Taliban takeover next door has changed everything in that region, and to think there are so many outfits in Pak inspired by Afghan Taliban Link to comment
