Re: Pakistani blind cricket team captain served acid in India
That is exactly what you are doing, herd mentality, running to defend your country even when something has plainly been done wrong by them.
As for jao, you want to be sarcastic, two can play the game, so next time think before you make sarcastic comments.
I did not realize " look who is taking, from a country..." was not sarcasm. Sarcasm is fine. Jao coming from you is nor sarcasm. Maybe it is just me.
You have serious issues if my posts are being interpreted as defending India. I have requested Dawn article. I have stated I will check out cricinfo since Captain stated info provided there.
I don't feel the need to defend despicable acts. I plan to gather info. You seemed to have made up your mind and filing upbthe crowd. Maybe you are not sheep. Should you be called leader?
Re: Pakistani blind cricket team captain served acid in India
I commented on what I have read in several articles.
You accuse me oif being judgemental.
Challo theek hai. Let's wait for more (manufactured) details.
Well forgive me for I have sinned. I should have known you had read several articles. Using ones common sense it can be assumed most people who commented in this thread based their opinion on two links provided. Info in those links was not complete.

Well you should have gathered information before coming here and started posting nilly willy. Giving others lecture when you have admitted you are still gathering information does not show you in very good light. I suggest you go and collect info and than come back.

You would have a point IFF I had defended this act while not having gathered info. When I first read the comments based on 2 links with sketchy details, it was natural for me to opine that folks are jumping the gun w/o full information. My initial post clearly States an apology owed even if accidents. And if deliberate perpetrator should be punished.
When I saw a barrage ot list 30 min ago responding to me, it was entirely logical and appropriate to communicare all info not in. So why jump the gun? Thus is done all the time. If incomplete info provided and people flock to one side nothing wrong in calling them on it. IMO
The captain of Pakistan’s blind cricket team, Zeeshan Abbasi, needed hospital treatment on Saturday after drinking cleaning fluid that he mistook for mineral water at his hotel in India.
Doctors examined Abbasi, a fast bowler who is leading Pakistan’s team in the Blind World Twenty-20 World Cup Cricket Tournament in the southern city of Bangalore, and pronounced him fit to play.
“The cricketer accidentally consumed phenyl” from a plastic bottle at his hotel in the city, doctor Naresh Shetty told AFP. “He mistook the phenyl bottle for a water bottle.”
Phenyl is a fluid widely used to clean and disinfect bathrooms and public spaces.
“We examined him and have administered some medicines. Abbasi is totally fit to play and has been discharged from the hospital,” Shetty said.
The 28-year-old, who made his international debut in 2000, drank the cleaning fluid, which was diluted with water, during breakfast, local media reports said.
The doctor added that police were questioning housekeeping staff about how the incident had occurred and that the hotel had apologised to the player.
Chairman Blind Cricket Council Sultan Shah called the event an accident and said it “will not become an impediment in Indo-Pak cricket relations”.
“However, what we want to know from the hotel management, who have orally apologised to us, is how such an incident happened and who is responsible for such negligence,” Shah said, according to the Press Trust of India.
Pakistan’s blind team defeated India on Friday by eight wickets in the Twenty-20 tournament.
The incident comes as India and Pakistan are gearing up to play their first cricket series since ties were broken after the deadly 2008 attacks in Mumbai.
India is to host Pakistan for two T20 internationals and three 50 over matches from December 25, beginning in Bangalore. Matches will also be held in Ahmedabad, Chennai, Kolkata and the last game will be played in New Delhi on January 6. Pakistan blind cricket captain
