I have been watching the Indian media on how they saw Younus’s innings. Watched

And they hardly even mention his innings or the contributions of Misbah and Afridi. Watching Indian channels it appeared as if the only thing happened today in Mohali was Tendulkar’s 99 runs.
All channels started with Pak beat India by 4 wicket. India made 321 Pak chased, Younus made highest 117 and butt, misbah, bla bla. This finishes in 10-15 seconds. Followed by lengthy reports on Tendulkar’s 99 runs. And they start like
Sachin Ka Balla run ugalta raha
Ball bowler key hath sey nikalti aur boundary key paar
Sachin ney Afridi ko chakka laga ker bataya key wo shahanshah heiN
Kal Tendulkar family man they tu aaj team man
They say what the public wants. As I have maintained over the years, the media is a mirror image of the public. So, I wasn't expecting anything different. To their defence, we are no angels when it comes to unbiased reporting.
Balla runs ugalta raha; I hate that f'ing line. They cannot ignore us if we keep beating them however, so hopefully that will continue Inshallah. Just pay no attention to them for now.

Pathetic display of unilateral reporting.
They have this habit of copying everythig from Europeans and the West. From movies, songs, adds, shows now even to the best practise of media coverage. Germans cover their loses against teams in these ways. I suppose they didn't even spare the Germans.
that is very much true. Whenever he scores big, India loses. Exact opposite of Afridi, who when scores big, Pak almost always wins. In this respect, Afridi may be the #1 match winning batsman of the world, with winning rate close to 100%. Inzi had it around 84%.
