I don't see any issue with this

He probably didn't even think that this would cause any type of ruckus

He's just having fun!
 
Why sports people get involved in politics when they are still active professionals?

Anyway, this will appeal to a lot of chest thumping keyboard warriors,

Yup. Possibly he was just doing his signature celebration, just in a different way.

Perhaps we all r trying too hard to find things in his celebration which weren't there in the first place. Not impossible. But it looked like he was mocking the soldiers, that's the problem.

I think Indians are a bit overreacting here. It's only a celebration, they are having fun. I'm pretty sure Hassan did it for the crowed. I don't think there were any negative intentions.

Success is getting to his head. I have to be consistent, if Gambhir had done something like this I would not have liked it. He has to keep these celebrations till the cricket field. I don't know what it is he is trying to prove. Patriotism is from loving your own country and not at the expense of belittling an enemy.

Then the soldier should have problem why posters,:genius
 
Hasan should have not done this, totally unprofessional act from a professional cricketer. And, I'm a Pakistani, but what is wrong, is wrong.

And Pakistani poster harp about keeping politics and cricket separate. This was utter crass display by a professional sportsperson. If sports are meant to o bridge a divide , Hasan Ali should be chucked out. If all is fair, than Pakistani posters should not cry about India not playing them. The shameless hypocrisy of certain posters is out on full display.

I don't agree with what Hasan did here, but Indians shouldn't whine on mixing politics with cricket. Your board and government has continuously pushed that narrative, so it doesn't matter what Pakistan does now.

I would prefer our players and board officials to not stoop down to BCCI/GOI level though.
 
Should be played on screen in Indian dressing room on the face of Kohli that look one match you lost and what happened. If Kohli has any spirit left he would stop sucking up and finally deliver on field.

Kohli will more than make up for it in the next world cup, the guy is too driven and full of pride to take that loss and forget it, I am sure he's itching to set things right once and for all

Well Hassan, along with Amir, already did that to India in the finals. Kohli out 2 times in 2 bowls (people won't forget that one), Sharma-duck, and Dhoni out-bowled Hassan. Lets see how India replies.

Kohli was out twice in one inning?
 
Respect to Azhar Ali though. Hands down the most likeable player in Pakistan.

Doesn't matter. He alone can't win it for India everytime. Our mediocre bowlers should start learning to deliver in the finals for once.
 
The environment at wagah border is so tremendous that everyone gets provoked. Hassan is just a young guy who got provoked nothing else. Would have been wrong if someone like Sarfaraz did it.

Na,
Difference is clear to see for everyone.

Gambir open his mouth and words comes out which make him look like he is always angry, so its easy to troll him. Same with him dissing on twitter, not upto the standard. He always seem butt hurt.

Hassan, only did his celebration for the people of Pakistan in Pakistan.

Fun or disrespectful? :hasanali

neither.

just a fallible human whose new found celebrity brings focus to their actions. history will judge him for his exploits on the field, not on the border.

maybe as he ages, he will mature, he will be more aware that the spotlight on his allows him the unique opportunity to be an inspiration on and off the field.

but nonetheless, no story here. he is a good man, just fooling around. but if i know some of my fellow countrymen, there will be some who will want to have his scalp.

It is a unique border, the whole ceremony is designed to entertain people from both side of the border by selective few Soldiers. Kind of Fun competition, just like cricket, and Hassan Ali just added some more flavor to it for couple of minutes. I am sure many entertainer has done the same in the past from both side of the border.

No one need to get emotional and turn into something that it isn't.
 
The comments on this thread further prove why cricket is a dying sport.

You might think he actually shot the soldier.

Hasan should have done it 10x just to rub it in the faces of some of these “fans”.

Because he never says, hears, or listens to anything?

He is the pantheon of the “acha bacha” cricketer which has plagued PAK for the past decade.
 
I don't see what the big deal is - I thought it was quite funny. The whole thing at Wagah is about theatre and acting anyway - he's just joining in lol.

Akram Younis ,Imran were legends on the field with agression on the field, would never see them do anything like this.

Of course it's your country and your fans watching, and should be taken lightly but not by the players.

Lol which is true though, he can do anything he wants ,plus if you been there you would realize it's pretty hostile at some days so nothing wrong he entertained the crowd that came that day.

He’s having a laugh.

If he wanted to taunt the Indian army, he would have done a lot worse. It’s not as if he flipped the finger. It’s his celebration for crying out loud!

He might have fans in India also who wanted to see it.
 
I have an intense dislike for nationalism, patriotism, etc. This is a digital world. An international sportsman should be above this.

Poor from Hassan!
 
Just a bit of fun really.

Maybe someone needs to show it to Gambhir.
 
[MENTION=146270]WengerOut[/MENTION] no it wouldn't have been funny. Hopefully you never get injured, but I can assure you an injury is everything but funny, (more so when it's a professional athlete).

He is not taunting, neither is he disrespectful towards Indian soldiers/fans.

It's just his signature celebration for his fans in crowd.

That border is a tourist spot.
 
It could be seen as fun from Pakistanis point of view, but it was unprofessional.

We have jokers around in every professional field who gives laugh here and there but, when it comes to professionalism, it paints an ugly picture.

One should be mature while carrying the burden of the nation in different fields while representing.

Ok point taken. Small discomfort like cramps was what i meant by injuries for lack of better word
 
Its a unique tradition in this part of the world where soldiers give dramatic performances in this border ceremony but IMO civilians should not get involved in this.

People do dance on patriotic songs and carry the flag in their hands before the ceremony but only the soldiers are entitled to make aggressive postures towards each other. A civilian coming midway and participating in an important military ceremony is disrespectful to soldiers of both countries.
 
I dont see anything wrong with it, I mean all he is doing is posing for the cameras and having a good laugh. Its all in good humour and completely harmless. I personally found it funny...

Respect to you. You truly are a proud Pakistani.

Having said that, its Hassan Ali's border, and he is free to clown around if that's what he has been taught to do in school. Swag would have been, had he smiled and waved at the Indian crowd, exactly what Kohli would have done to Pakistani crowd. And thats why a lot of Pakistanis love him.

You got that right, it will always be a dream :srini

Amir getting Kohli out in a big final was also a dream. Dreams are there to be fulfilled

The sad thing is that if Hassan actually does this, the supposedly safer part of the subcontinent would erupt and look to lynch the poor guy in the stadium.
 
Didn''t think it was a big deal when I heard of it but watching the video made me cringe. Unnecessary.

Be sure of it there will be a reply from an irrelevant Indian celebrity at the border as well. What a chance for them to become popular in the Indian public once again
 
Don’t see such a big issue here.. I see a lot of Pakistani fans criticising Hasan in this thread.. It’s not a big deal people get triggered so easily these days it seems.. This was like trash talking before fights and stuff light hearted fun doubt any soldier felt disrespected..

Those "Pakistani fans" are just trying be holier than thou. Straight up correct people who don't wanna hurt anybody.

Get over it. Don't take life too seriously.

This would have been a nice gesture and added a bit of class to his antics. But all in all, was just some fun.
 
It was just awesome by Hassan Ali. He is such a jovial character. Have been to Wagah both sides of public get involved 'heavily' and there is a lot of vile hooting esp. from indian side, probably offset Hasan to just give it back to them.
 
lmao are Indians genuinely offended by this ? or has it been a very quiet day?
 
Loved it, most of the so called Pakistani's on this forum a haven't been to Pakistan for a decade or so, I have been to Wagah Border and the atmosphere is electric, and Hassan was probably pumped up by it and He was mocking Indian soldiers and we "Pakistani's" truly loved it. Your Indian players can talk rubbish against our Army and you don't expect any reactions? This also shows you Pakistani Cricketers have no interest in being in your good books unlike other cricketers
Long Live Pakistan
 
Whats point of doing it to army, its not like they were playing the final. You better do it infront of Kohli whenever you see him at some event.
 
Not a good gesture, Hassan comes from a typical desi village background & definitely needs some grooming sessions to improve his outlook & behaviour. (no disrespect to him at all, I absoultely love his bowling & energy on the field)

If Hasan Ali had gone near the Indian side and shouted out some profanity, disrespected the Indian nation than I would have been the first to disapprove of it, then I could understand the moral finger waging.

But this?

No way?

He is just doing regular celebration, albeit with ton loads of passion.

I find the soldiers of both sides patrolling the border, shouting out some military stuff loudly and doing all those over the top aggressive walking thing far more frightening or intimidating. Comapred to the daily ceremonies of the soldiers Hasan did a harmless little gag in good humor.

Everyone knows his art of celebrating there was nothing over the top or exaggerated. So stop crying over it and get on with the program. People take themselves and their ego and pride far too seriously. As if it holds any meaning. At the end of the day life is to be enjoyed.
 
Soldiers of both sides are involved in border firing and actually KILLING real humans. Politicians are involved with dirty politics which benefits neither of the nations.

While people here are losing their minds over a known cricket player showing a bit of humor at a popular public tourist spot.

Hmmmmm.

Have to agree. Basically he took cricket into politics.
Click to expand...

It's the emotional and people with low self-esteem who are projecting some kind of a political statement behind his gag.

Why can't we take it at face value?

It is a small gag, just for laugh nothing more and nothing less. He was well within the Pakistani border. Oh would have been another thing if was standing millimeters away from the Indian border and was in the face of an Indian soldier. After he turned around he had a huge smile on his face, communicating that it's a joke and nothing serious. I can bet the Indian soldiers were smiling too.

The amount of sensitive people in this thread from the Pakistani side worries me. Are we really that weak and soft that a small joke is troubling us and feel some ki d of a need to condemn it to show how mature we are?

Lol "swag"

Dude what are you 14?

People have their own personality and their own way of expressing it. I love Kohli's way of dealing with the indo-pak issue. At the same time not every Indian and Pakistani player has to act like Kohli to be likeable.
 
What minnow-esque behavior. I guess after Miandad's 6 in the 1980s, minnow-minded Pakistanis have found another one-off incident to keep milking.

Winners look forward, flukers look back in nostalgia.. Those Bangladeshi fans who still talk about 2007 WC have found some new company looks like.:ishant
 
Seems entirely unnecessary and will probably be utilised in several youtube videos against him in the future lol.
