The look on Rilee Rossouw's face when a plane flew over the stadium - who else noticed it?

[DHONI183]

A plane flew over the stadium yesterday during the Karachi-Quetta match. Given its sound, it must´ve been a fighter jet as opposed to a passenger plane. The sound that it made, it almost knocked the life out of Rossouw as he looked so anxious, holding his heart/chest with his hand. Then he´d a sigh of relief when it passed the stadium. The poor guy looked so scared. Ramiz Raja noticed it and said something along the lines of "Relax young man."

The foreign players obviously must be aware of the ongoing Indo-Pak tensions and the possibility of further escalation to it.

I am sorry but what escalation? After we shot down their two jets, it's all over.

It happened too quickly. Was over in a matter of seconds but yeah the sound was... loud.

There was a flyover today too but not as bad as yesterday

Around what over did it happen folks?

Any idea?

Erm, brother you´re trusting PM Modi too much here I feel. I too hope that way but remember the recent revelation by PM Imran that they had the inside report of a missile attack being planned by India the next day, a day after the jets were shot down, and how things calm down following a message that was sent to Delhi that night. Remember also the recent rumours that India had all their troops readied in Rajkot those days. Also to be considered is the report from a British newspaper I think that India are digging over 400 bunkers in the Indian Kashmir.

In fact let me too make a revelation here. My father is someone whom you´ll find in the depth of the sea of negativity. He´d over the years been warning me that Modi might start an all out war some day. In this habit though, I´m a complete opposite of him as I always stay calm and positive, so I´d always interrupt to tell him that no way a war is taking place between two nuclear powers. But given the events from late February, I feel that I was being a little too positive here perhaps. So I´ve given up on this as now I really can expect anything from Modi, anything I repeat. Either, I´m also inclined towards the view that things are done for now, but I´d still advice against getting too comfortable with things just yet.

Oh´ and, I apologise to the moderators for bringing in politics in this section of our wonderful forum. Such a discussion shouldn´t actually be taking place here but in 'Time Pass' in fact. So let´s end it here. In fact, it can be discussed further in one of my own threads.......

Also, I forgot to add in my last post above that it doesn´t matter what you or I think or how we interpret events to be. What matters here is what Rossouw and other foreign players might be fearing given the recent events.

Around what over did it happen folks?

Any idea?

Well brother, Rossouw only stayed out there for mere 13 balls, from over 6.3 to 8.4 to be precise. Also, another hint is that Rossouw himself was to face the next ball and it was a spinner who was bowling. All of this is confirmed.

Going a step forward to locate the scene from these facts, I´d say it has to be one of these deliveries: over 7.1, 7.3 or 7.5. My gut feeling says it was over 7.3.

It was before the first ball of the 7th over. You can watch the replay if you have Cricket Gateway.

Thank you.

That was hilarious.

 

[Kroll]

This reminds me of last week when that Salam Zindagi show was on the TV and Faisal Qureshi and co in the studio had to pause as we could all hear the roar of jets that had just flew over head.

Honestly, looking at this is quite sad.

Hope this perception starts changing more and more.

 

[pakistani pride]

Well then this is the same for IPL.
LETS SEE.

 

[Kaka4pope]

live in London, if a fighter jet randomly flew over me (low flying?) while out and about, would probably be taken by big surprise too...

 

[DHONI183]

If things escalate further from hereon between India and Pakistan and then something like this happens during an IPL or any match in India, sure enough the players might get worried there too. So yeah.

Possibly, but the background here might just have played a part behind such a reaction from Rossouw. Maybe.

Can anyone provide a video of it, guys?

Might get worried LOL. They WILL get worried.

Pakistan should troll India big time during the IPL.

 

[Hasan123]

We have to accept this. These guys are see stuff in the news, they don't know the details of what's going on.

 

[DHONI183]

Off topic alright but who else witnessed that incredibly romantic moment between Fakhr-e-Alam and that Australian presenter? Have heard about candlelight dinner but they were having a floodlight tea or something. I hope someone over here can find a video or a photo of it. A lovely light moment that was. I loved it!

 

[Pakistanian]

can somebody post a video.

 

[RobinJay]

Well, he was an absolute crowd favorite at the stadium today. Everyone kept chanting his name and he would acknowledge us every time with a wave and a smile.

I thought it was extremely cringe. Tapal has gone berserk with their placement ads. They must be stopped!

Interesting. Any reason or just like that?

I take these T20 leagues as carnivals, as kind of festivals. So I take whatever comes my way. In fact, I presented my stance the last year too when I think it was [MENTION=9]Saj[/MENTION] bhai who objected to Wilkins learning and talking Urdu in the commentary box. In an international match, sure enough I wouldn´t take it.

Oh´ and... Tapal is finally getting the recognition that it deserves. Had always been head and shoulders above other teas, with the exception of maybe Lipton I´d say.
