IPL snubs Pak players

[tarunraju]

keep watching !!! Dawood & co will organize a parallel to IPL in UAE, funded by cash rich sheikhs!!!!

I think that cartel tried (it's called ICL), we all know it's a shipment of fail, which the BCCI snapped like a twig. Cash alone can't make such tournaments, it needs identity and recognition, and economic viability which India has.

India has the wealthiest cricket board, has the largest base of audience, has national diversity on which teams can be built (like in the US, with their sports), and holding a cricket league is viable. No country is touching Pakistan (to play there) with a barge pole. UAE has just the two grounds, and they can't quite build leagues.

People in India are not going to sit and watch their players represent another team (if they did, English county cricket would have been popular (you have T20 county cricket too)). International (≠ league) cricket already exists, it's called ICC World T20, where players play for their countries. Without a strong-enough Indian audience, it won't fetch much cash for them. Aussies like rugby and getting drunk, English love football.

BCCI won't patronize a league parallel to IPL, without its patronage, that league won't succeed.

IPL called them here, their hopes were high with backroom chatter about big money contracts, and then they send them home humiliated, amazing i am sure its the sort of stuff our women watch in tv serials.

bad show on the IPL team owners part, should have made things clear beforehand, its not good to insult people like this in our culture, people have strong memory with these events. IPL is a commercial event and Pakistan and Pakistani people are a market.

What is that? Out of more than 50-60 players, 11 were selected. The rest didn't make it, simple.

Why make a noise? It is not obligatory for IPL Franchisees to select any particular player any more than it is for a county to do so.

It is a domestic league that too privately owned. They don't like the way it works, too bad. Lump it.

It makes no difference to us what Pakistan thinks, we could cut all relations with them and still live in the same way (they will keep on supporting violence against us even if we are talking).

If it is clear that the IPL teams invited Pakistani players and then decided to humiliate them through a consent of not bidding for their services, it is shameful to us as a nation that this happened, and that is all it is, shameful, the teams are commercial entities which reserve the right to decide what they wish to do, no one should ask them to apologise for it, least of all our government which has better things to do, and i am happy that the government has taken the step of disassociating itself from this situation.

 

[nitesh]

Our government should say that this act is done by "non state actors"

If this is Video is representative of the mindset of the average Pakistani then we are better off not having any relationship with that nation.

The kind of attitude sickens me. Let all the id..ts in the media and especially TOI see this video and then write their editorials.

And some people are sorry for non-inclusion of these id!ots in IPL. Let them stew in their filth.

I think this should settle the issue.

Pak players did not fit bill: Teams

Friday, January 22, 2010 0:08 IST

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Indian Premier League (IPL) ruled out any rethink on Pakistan players vis-a-vis the third edition of the tournament.

“There are no vacancies. We can’t do anything about it,” said Lalit Modi, while BCCI president Shashank Manohar said the decision not to buy Pakistani players at the auction was taken by the franchisees and not the Board.

“We have given teams the best possible options. Who to buy was the choice of the owners,” Manohar said denying reports that the BCCI gave any instructions to the team owners. When asked if the IPL could have pre-empted the current controversy by excluding Pakistan players from the auction list, Modi said such things can be stated on hindsight.

Meanwhile, franchisees denied there was any effort to keep Pakistan players out. “We got the player we targeted,” said Brijesh Patel, the CEO of the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Delhi Daredevil’s Amrit Mathur said they had the got the player they wanted (Wayne Parnell) in the first round. “After buying Parnell we exhausted our purse,” Mathur said.

Kolkata Knight Riders’ Joy Bhattacharya said they went for pacer and Shane Bond fitted the bill.

Rajasthan Royals, which had four Pakistani players for IPL I, said they approached the auction with a specific targets. “We wanted an experienced batsmen in our line-up. Both Adam Voges and Damien Martyn are available for the majority of matches, which was important for us. They were our ideal picks regardless of our good experiences we have had before with Pakistani players,” Sean Morris, the CEO of Royals, said.

New Delhi continues to insist the government had at no time given any instructions to either the BCCI or the franchisees and had no role in a private auction conducted by the BCCI.

“Government has nothing to do with IPL, on selection of players and various exercises that are connected with it,” external affairs minister SM Krishna told reporters on Thursday.

 

[enlightened1]

"The Indian government doesn't figure anywhere in IPL," Krishna said.

Reacting to Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan's criticism of the boycott, Krishna said: "We know cricket binds people. Imran need not tell us that."

The minister said Imran should instead advise his own government about better relations. "The Indian government is ever willing to have any kind of exchanges, except terrorist exchanges," Krishna said.:goodstuff:

Report Sohail Tanvir for his racist remark
​

Guys,

This is not something to be laughed about or to be allowed to be swept under carpet. We all need to circulate this video on the facebook, orkut, defence forums and various online communities and need to send this video to various media houses, what needs to be highlighted is the racism in the term “Hindu Jahaniyat” used by Mr Sohail Tanvir.

ICC has a code of conduct under which racism is not allowed and least we allow this act to go unnoticed.

Contact details of ICC are given here: International Cricket Council - The ICC - About The Organisation - Contact Us

Telephone # +971 4 382 8800
Fax # +971 4 382 8600

I have on my part already reported this video at the above mentioned email, the mail I have sent is:

Ma’am/Sir

You must be aware there have been some very agitated reactions in Pakistan following their cricket players non inclusion in the IPL T20 for the third season, under one such reaction their medium fast bowler Mr Sohail Tanvir in a talk show hosted in Pakistan has made some absolutely outrageous remarks which have clear racist overtones to it, where he uses the term "Hindu Jahaniyat" to sight the reason of non inclusion of their team players. The term used can be heard at time 4:20 of the video.

ICC’s guidelines do not allow any kind of racism in the noble game of cricket, one of the reasons why cricket South Africa was debarred from playing any sort of international cricket.

It is requested to you to kindly look into this matter for a gentleman’s game can’t fall prey to someone who is a racist and as a cricket enthusiast who believes in the spirit of the game hopes some stern action be initiated against Mr Tanvir.

Yours Sincerely,

Ritesh Thakur.

Ritesh, we should rather try to bring this shamful video to the notice of the media, and as you know Media will do the rest without bothering about complaining to ICC.

 

[tarunraju]

Such Anti-semitism (don't know its equivalent for Hindus) is part of Pakistan's everyday TV. It's a very low grade of public exhibition, and doesn't deserve attention of our media. Our leaders are aware of all this, and are doing the right things.

"The Indian government is ever willing to have any kind of exchanges, except terrorist exchanges," - SM Krishna.

If you know their media well enough, they're going to interpret that statement as "they're equating our players with terrorists".

 

[Shredder]

This is really excellent, Pakistani players shouldn't even have been selected in the previous IPL seasons,

I bet MOST of the Pakistanis support the so called "freedom struggle"(terrorism) in Kashmir and support the b@stards they call "freedom fighters" for causing bloodshed in India,

Oh! but wait they still want us to pay 100s of thousands of $ for their damn players,

What sort of sick mentality these people have really, absolutely no shame, they can whine all they want about their Players being dropped, really who gives a damn.

 

[thakur_ritesh]

yes praladh ICC will have to brought into the picture, and only then will the action be initiated. they are very much into this since that remark amounts to racism and sohail tanvir is on record making that remark so if taken up properly some stern action awaits him.

i have mailed across the above mail with a few changes to the following media groups. request you all to also take up the issue.

Shameless beggers. When will the Pakistanis stop begging and embarassing themselves over and over again? They beg for aid, they beg for peace talks, and now they beg to be included in the IPL. And what's strange is that all this begging is accompanied by a weird sense of entitlement and self-righteousness on their part!!

How dare they world not give us enough aid? How dare India reject peace talks....so what if the Mumbai attacks happened, and so what if we refuse to give a guarantee against future attacks? And how dare those "Hindus" refuse to let our players play in the IPL and get paid millions.......(so what if we export terror into their country?)!!

And on our side, there are equally naive buffoons who either refuse to see or wilfully choose to ignore the connection between the extremism prevalent in Pakistani society, and the terror exported from there into India. All this talk of "peace" would work if and only if Pakistani society changes, and the rampant extremism due to decades of propaganda were to vanish.

Since that is not going to happen anytime soon, and Pakistanis themselves don't care enough to reverse the damage, it would be in India's best interests to hurt, humiliate and damage Pakistan every chance it gets.

Without such a policy in place, we'd be swamped by moronic advice about how we should fund the very terrorists that will kill us.

One should learn some lessons from sportsman like Wasim Akram which has earn him a unique place in Indian Cricket annals and now he is deservingly awarded a place in Kolkata Knight Riders as a Coach. Wasim Akram has always been profound supporter of Indian Cricket and never let his biased cover his opinion.

 

[Singh]

Sohail Tanvir as a proud Pakistani who has now found out the true intentions of the Kaafir Hindu should voluntarily return the money he earned from the 1st IPL.

Blo*dy bast*rd Sohal tanvir. Why the hell do these Pakistanis have to malign Hindu name for everything. India should never play against these suckers. PCB will rot to death without Indian money. This is fu*king Indian premier league, we choose whomever we want.

( ( ( (

And for a moment I was actually feeling sympathetic towards these guys for not getting selected. Instead of taking it in a sporting spirit, these morons are making it a national issue.

Damn you suckers. You can go to hell err i mean Pakistan.
