Pakistanis can betray their country as often as possible, there is no doubt about that but Pakistanis also wins matches for their country.
There is a solid difference.
No one is giving you lectures, but if you can't take a simple irreverant post, without jumping up and down with "full of hatred" bit then you do have a problem.
I have no further interest in this whole idiotic issue. I couldn't care less if Sachin or McGrath do or do not make an additional couple of million dollars here and there. My only interest is watching good cricket. If money is more important to the players then playnig for their country, then they should stick it up.

Agian dont give this issue a patriotic angle .As I said this arguement has been used and abused too much.
Its not about patriotism ,its about Individual's right.ICC didnt have right to sell what it sold and Indian players are fighting it which will eventually benefit all the players.Instead of supporting them you guys come out with those lame post criticizing them.That shows only 2 things
either you dont understand whole controversy OR
you are criticizing just because its Indian plaayer and BCCI.
Personally, if it was Australia, or South Africa or even Pakistani players who had created so much fuss over this thing, I would have said the same thing... Now that they got what they wanted (whatever!), it will be just so funny, if they lose all their matches after all. Bloated egos, thats all! :)
No Sir - I dont think you would have said that for Pakistani Team. Your mesg was full of hate and uncalled for.
Btw - Sponsors of ICC Tournament can’t sue BCCI. ICC Could have sued BCCI but not after this agreement. ICC-BCCI agreement formalised

Faisalji - I think you are being unjust to the Indian Cricketers.
Sponsorship is the only way for them to make and then save a reasonable amount of Money. It is their Provident and Pension Fund.
Who knows when they will lose their Form? Form Gaya Aur Kamayee Bund. On Loss of Form the man does not stop feeling hungry or that his family responsibilities come to an end. So the guys had to make a stand and fight for their rights.
Yes the ICC realise the ''Crowd Pulling, TV Sponsorship and the Brand Image'' of the Indian Cricketers. That is why they deleted the Six Months Clause and reduced the 35 Days to 18 Days. In addition the BCCI will not be sued by the sponsors of the ICC Trophy. Game, Set and Match.
You should rejoice for the Indian Players. A day will come and Pakistani Cricketers will be earning huge sponsorship fees. Then when their earnings are in conflict you will realise the position. We Indians will support the Pakistani players in times of such Conflict. We hope that our Pakistani Friends will support the Pakistani Players.
