Re: DON’T TREAT US AS “UNTOUCHABLES”, AFRIDI’S APPEAL TO BCCI

@nikhil25

you are making the same irrelevant argument. nobody is arguing about who calls the shots or claiming that pakistani cricketers have an inalienable right to play in the ipl.

the point is that all the other countries are involved and there are large numbers of foreigners playing in the tournament. pakistanis are the only ones not in the tournament and not because of talent issues. without a convincing reason as to why that is the case, we are entitled to pass judgment (including afridi). this is a court of opinion not of law.

I am responding to your assertion that IPL is an international(ized) tournament. Its not - its an Indian tournament with limited foreign participation. And BCCI calls the shots on who those players/countries should be. Ideally its all the ICC countries, but in specific cases like this one Pakistan is not included (and not due to lack of talent).

Now I am not quite sure what your point is…
