Karachi: PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf might have
blamed uncertain security situation in India for
the national women`s team flop show in the
World Cup but captain Sana Mir returned home all
praise for the hospitality showered on the team
by the hosts. The Pakistan team finished last in the eight-team
event and had to remain confined to the Barabati
stadium complex because of security fears but
Sana did not make an issue of the fact. "We were well taken care off in the stadium and
the hospitality shown by the Indian people was
touching. That is why I hope relations between
the two countries only improve," Sana told
reporters after returning home today. "I think there is a need for more normal relations
and more matches between Pakistan and India,"
she added. Ashraf had said after a meeting with interior
minister, Rehman Malik in Islamabad on Friday
that the performance of the team was affected by
security situation. The PCB chief also said that players were
overwhelmed by fears as no hotel was willing to
give them security. Sana said the team`s poor performance was due
to strong competition and batting failure. "But we did well in patches, for the first time we
were able to bowl Australia out in a match," she
said. Rehman Malik was also quoted as saying that he
would raise the issue of not giving proper
security to the Pakistan team with the Indian
government. "Not giving security to our women’s team is a
concern and I will raise this issue with the Indian
government," he said.

Good job done bu Orissa cricket association :cheers:

Sana mir is very good representative for Pakistan women's cricket :cheers:
 
There;s nothing to be Proud of . Confining a team to a stadium is Despicable , instead of confining those in jails who were threatening them , Overtly or covertly .

She still has been a wonderful woman and not said anything bad . APPRECIATE THAT .
 
@Cherokee Be practical yaar. I know the incident was bad and condemnable especially when allowed Paksitani player to come at first place. If they have come, they have to be given equal treatment.

But also think about the motions in India aginst Pakistan. Those people were protesting against Pakistan. Think about what that protest was about. Beheading of Indian soldiers. They had people's support against Pakistan. Not against Pkistani players.

There is a difference.

The steps taken were according to the resources they had and minimizing the chances of something violent.

At that time, emotions were damn high. For that you have deal with alternative solutions.

Still I condemn the threatening of Private hotels by RSS etc.

Agreed. But if it was me, I would have put security of all the major priority. Sometimes doing the wrong thing is right as its better solution for damn hard problems.

I agree with you too.

What hard problems are you talking about? Those lunatics who threatened the team can be called anything but hard problem. I am sure team would not have been attacked by suicide bombers had they stayed in Bhubaneswar itself and I am also sure that the security officials would have taken them safely from bhubaneswar to stadium. The threat were bunch of bull shitters who could have done no harm more then pelting a few stones. Are you telling me they were such a big problem? In my opinion, the decision to move them to stadium was taken hastily and it was not needed at all.
 
I also appreciate India for giving our woman cricket team all facilities within stadium and not giving them chance to stay in hotel and to interact with players of others international teams :D

oh ki gal karda ha krait ji :P :D

as far as security concern Pakistani man cricket team visited India and played matches in different cities of India just weeks ago even in places like Ahmedabad. Why they were not forced to stay in stadium because of fear of those who din't wanted Pakistani cricket team in India because of 26/11
