[sweep_shot]

So, Indian government is okay with Kabaddi team visiting Pakistan but not cricket team.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Great to see our team in Pakistan, our brotherly nation always.

Wishing them a good tournament. Hope they are not tempted by the delicious food in Pakistan, we need them fit and fine for the matches brother.

If you want to banter, atleast remove the restrictions!

 

[Romali_rotti]

This is where Pakistanis are always on the wrong side of the road, you still don't get it. Matter of fact I am convinced you lot will never get it....

Indian team not touring Pakistan is for one purpose only; to hurt Pakistan's income stream from such a lucrative tour. Strategic decision taken by the Indian Government, you ain't making no serious dollar through us bruh!!!!!!!!!

Hardly anyone cares about Kabadi nor will it get the financial backing compared to the Indian cricket team...

Change of heart or why don't you call spade a spade like @Romali_rotti

It’s all economics and playing to domestic audience tunes which they understand or care about.

I can share you the actual jerseys pics if you want.
Media can be sometimes dumb.. and anyways I have always said this sports boycott is not about equal treatment . Check up my posts on champions trophy. I don't have to keep repeating these things.

The hilarious thing is Pakistan inviting SGPC and calling it India .

Much appreciated but unlike other respectable indian posters here won't you call BCCI move as politics rather than security drama

As I said, read my posts and what my stance has been. I will not like to engage with mods when I get singled out

If security situation in Pak is so good, why the need of this

Army and Rangers sought for enhanced security at PSL X matches

PSL X to have top-level security to protect teams and officials

The Punjab Home Department has asked the Ministry of Interior to send in the army and Rangers to help with security during the matches of the 10th edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) scheduled in Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Multan, Geo News reported on Monday.

With international players and officials involved, the event is considered a high-profile one, so extra measures are being taken, the home department said. The security will be tight, covering not only the games but also the teams’ movements and accommodations, it added.

Indians are hypocrites but we knew this already. I just mentioned in another thread.

 

[HalBass9]

Good. Pakistan needs to keep that channel wide open, just so our former Santani brothers can see how mentally boxed in their government has made them. Isolated, indoctrinated, and fed propaganda until they forgot who their own brothers even were.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Great to see our team in Pakistan, our brotherly nation always.

Wishing them a good tournament. Hope they are not tempted by the delicious food in Pakistan, we need them fit and fine for the matches brother.

A bit off topic but why not settle Kashmir issue too? 70 plus years wasted already

Your perspective is too one-dimensional—things aren’t always as simple as either this or that.





My initial post about why the Indian cricket team is banned from visiting Pakistan, citing domestic political considerations and economic factors, represents just one side of the story.





The security situation in Pakistan is undeniably poor, and anyone who denies that is simply deluding themselves. Cricketers are far more high-profile targets compared to relatively unknown kabaddi players, so it’s unfair to compare the security concerns faced by cricketers with those of athletes in other sports within the subcontinent.





The kabaddi players are likely traveling to Pakistan for economic reasons. They’re aware that the security situation isn’t ideal, but they’ve probably weighed the pros and cons, and for them, the financial benefits outweigh the risks.





To dismiss security concerns as mere excuses is an oversimplification. From Pakistan’s point of view, the only viable solution is to fix internal issues first. Once the nation is stabilized, security will naturally improve. With better security, the economy will also recover, making Pakistan a stronger and more attractive market. At that point, India-Pakistan relations will improve organically, regardless of which political party is in power on either side.





The real issue with India-Pakistan relations is that a large portion of the public—on both sides—is brainwashed and lacks the critical thinking needed to understand what can realistically be changed and what is beyond their control. People tend to view things through a narrow lens, often shaped by those in power who influence public perception for their own agendas.

Brother it is my Dili-Tamannah that a peace treaty is held between both nations. I have already asked for Bharat to pledge minimum 100 billion USD investment for building roads, schools and hospitals in Pakistan as a friendly gesture and as part of the peace treaty.

I have no doubt one day it will be achieved. Whether we are alive or not that day it another question but it is inevitable.

More people to people relations is the way to go brother. Ameen
