patriot Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 The manner in which some universities are doling out honorary doctorates, don't be surprised to hear this in the near future. A single brain celled " beast' with an honorary doctorate. Blimey ...
iHammad Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 ^^ Why are you showing jealousy over a cricketer that deserves something? He played good in the t20 WC, so they award him. Whats wrong with that?

Whats wrong with that?[/quote'] What exactly has Afridi earned in his cricketing career other than his forgotten fastest century ? Agreed, that he played 'out of his comfort' in T20 WC but do you seriously believe that makes him a good deserving candidate for such doctorates ? The day Indian fans feel jealous over Afridi's 'achievements' would definitely be our last day as cricket followers
patriot Posted July 21, 2009 Author Posted July 21, 2009 LOL @ the sight of Afridi giving a lecture at a graduaton ceremony while receiving his " honorary doctorate". M3FsLEM3Rbw I mean just look at the pathetic set up of the graduation ceremonies of some of these universities like Bradford. Truely belittling the honor of an honorary doctorate.

The day Indian fans feel jealous over Afridi's 'achievements' would definitely be our last day as cricket followers Yes i do believe that. Because t20 WC is a big platform and to give such a good performance there in the semi finals and the finals, and to lead his team single handed to the cup means a lot! And it should be acknowledged. I think that's what the people at Bradford thought by giving him this honorary doctorate. By the way,which player in India did well in the T20 WC? Afridi is an exciting player to watch, even Indians admit that. Don't believe me? Chec it out. http://indiancricketfans.com/showthread.php?t=165035 post number's : 35, 25, 6 , and 2

So with that logic of yours, Yuvraj should have been given a doctorate for hitting 6 6's which is a very very very rare feat in any format of the game and out of all Joginder should be an honorary degree holder for bowling THAT ball to misbah for him to miscue it and getting out. When did I say Afridi was not an exciting player ?

What else do you want?
