Someone just claimed India refused to play in Sharjah in 90s?Lol.India played regularly in Sharjah in 90s.The ban on Sharjah came in 2000.
Secondly PCB refused to come to India in 1990 to play the Asia cup and then refused to come to India in 1991 and 1993.India then refused to tour Pakistan in 1995.Before cricketing relations were restored in 1997.
Some people need to read history if they were too young to witness it or else stop making baseless claims.
You are a credible source ? LMAO. Sorry but your opinion simply does not count . FFS you think Australasia-Cup is the most intense and greatest match ever played between Ind-Pak lol .....
You are the one that needs to do the research and tell me why Pak didnt tour India in the 90s despite being invited by BCCI.
I asked you guys do some research to bring a modicum of reality to your delusional and self-serving narrative.
Here is an excerpt from a short (albeit average quality and somewhat partial) Indian account on India - Pakistan cricket, Shadows Across the playing Field: 60 Years of India - Pakistan Cricket”
Once Javed pulled off, IMO still the greatest victory in the history of ODI cricket, this ensued:
Finally it dawned on Indian cricket that far from getting better, with addition of Waqar, Saeed, Aamir, etc to an already strong team, things were about to get worse.
There was but only one possible solution to this, throw a hissy-fit!
So suddenly some of the best neutral umpires ever to officiate (e.g. Dennis “Dickie” Bird, David Shepherd, etc.) were “partial” or “not good enough” for India. Friday prayer breaks at Sharjah offered “unfair advantage to Pakistan.” Does that sound like there might be something wrong with these excuses? Of-course what followed was more some non-cricketing excuses.
The only possible way India could stop losing to Pakistan, was to stop playing them! They only made brief exceptions to this on neutral venues to ensure 96 world cup does not get jeopardized.
Yes Pakistan does not dominate India like that anymore, but India has NEVER dominated Pakistan in ODIs. Even if Pakistan has been weakened for non cricketing reasons recently, they would not run away like India did. I am a big believer in well fought defeats being more honorable than a win. That is why Karachi 2004 remains one of my favorite India - Pakistan matches of all time.
You can sell yourself stories about winning every Wednesday but what you will not live down, is how the only solution you found to the constant beatings, was to run away. How you did not not play Pakistan during its peak era.
And BTW most Pakistani fans on PP will likely be too young to have followed the events beyond last couple of decades. They also do not have the unique “witness from occupied land” context that Kashmiris do. So the fact that some of them may take these fantasy accounts of “Indian domination” seriously does not mean that is the whole story.
