@Saby

you are right. My sentence was missing a ‘not’ =)

I completely agree with the statement that people invest emotionally in the game and hence get hurt with such performances. Neither do I approve what Younis did was right. My point is that we cross the lines and over-react in horrible ways and demand such inexplicable things (Match-fixing, donkey rides, effigies etc)

Egjactly.

A bit of booing at the airport would have been fine but pushing and shoving him in a disgraceful manner (and that too after someone is understandably tired after a long flight + mentally stressed due to what had happened post WC) was over-stepping the line and showing extreme jihaalat. It was totally unwarranted and uncalled for. To his immense credit (I am repeating here) Younis kept his emotions under check and did not slap or kick anyone :k: which is what (forget Inzi and Afridi) even Imran Khan would have done.

Imran once slapped a press reporter in the early 90s after he insulted him in front of everyone (can’t remember the exact details) by asking him something about his personal life at a press conference
