Imran's comments deters Pietersen from playing PSL final

[F86 Saber]

Assumptions. I have said, 'it's a risk to hold PSL final in Lahore'. Image building involves a lot of things.

Lets pray for the best.

I was against it from the very start, want me to link you up? It has nothing to do with politics for me.

We have no other option, we can either bow down and admit defeat or we fight back. This is us fighting back.

Everything isn't politics all the time, grow up.

I just hope we don't see an unfortunate event.

I was talking about me.

although if in Final foreigners "existing players " won't come this might reduce a bit of excitement from the game however PSL fever remains very strong and entire country is excited and If God forbid worst happens "a terror incident " these extremist terrorists will be hated more by the pakistanis

 

[koolio]

The final should not be held in Lahore, the environment isn't just right especially with recent terrorist incidents, next year would have been better, but as usual Bugs Bunny league supporters dont like shouldering responsibilities, If NAP was implemented properly, by now the whole tournament should have been held in Pakistan.

Hold it in Pakistan so that the local public can enjoy a good game of cricket .
Image , etc you guys complicate it too much. A match will not change the perception of Pakistans support to banned outfits.
Have good security and fill the stadium with spectators.

IK is right... may be start with smaller competitions in lahore to give confidence that its safe for large crowd.

 

[Mrc]

To b honest imran khan has neither iq nor attitude to be a national leader..

He has been behaving like a 3 years old who wants a buiscuit and not getting it

Imran khan has this irrisistable desire to give in and appease the terrorists...

I am afraid he is wrong here and pm NS is right...
Pm.will be attending the match... i suggest ik shud travel to nangerhar and attend shura meeting that day

On the one hand he makes a good point, I don't trust Punjab police/govt to ever be able to provide meaningful security for people; However, we also need to make a stand and let people know that terrorism wont defeat our day to day lives.

One thing is certain though, If an attack does happen it will end up being the death of PMLN

Imran Khan is right. Playing Cricket is madness. A dharna outside parliament and invading PTV HQ is real act of sanity.

Of course, it's not like there are any terrorist attacks in any other provinces of Pakistan, especially KPK which has become invincible since the great Khan formed a government there.

IK made his statement hoping that there would be an attack so he can exploit it. He is the one man that would do or say anything to become PM!

Playing Cricket is chai pana. This is the real act of intellect and sanity

Dont be ridiculous, KPK is on the border with Afghanistan whereas Punjab is located inland. Punjab gets a massive budget in comparison to the other provinces. Punjab police has also famously been reluctant to attack terrorist and their facilitators in Punjab, and the police has been known to overlook criminal elements in exchange for gifts.

On the other hand, even the Army has even praised KPK polices effective response to terrorist attacks which end up saving many lives, whereas i've yet to hear anything similar in regards to Punjab police.

As for him wanting to be PM, surely the best thing would be to say the opposite! Pakistanis are obsessed with cricket, so how would criticising a domestic game score him anything?

if there is an attack then he will just be proven right, showing that his judgement is better for leadership.
