Any dumb will believe that Shahid Afridi, Tanvir, Umer Akmal loosing in a bid in front of low profile players without any conspiracy in back ground. All were part of World Champion Team.
Obviously after their insult in IPL, he deserve to be harsh and angry.
IPL should also formally apologize from all Pakistani players.
but not as big a success than first IPL.
And also, most money ever generated from any one IPL match is still the one in which Shoaib Akhtar participated.
The reason why Pak lpayers were not chosen is only because of 26/11/2008. And the auctions wer held in feb i think.
altho they say its business decision, i believe its under pressure from indian govt (NOT rss, dal, SS as some members claim) to not let Pak players, and that I think is fair.
Maybe as they claims it maybe business decisino, because what if they are auctioned and then india refuse visa OR what if other elements damage property (this the Shiv Sena is perfectly capable of) and create danger to lives.
I think its good that pak players were not taken. BUT I think they should have been personally told rather than not choosing them in an auction.
