Dear Members,

The IPL was a great success in 2008 and hence the lime light once again on this electrifying tournament in a cricket loving nation of ours.

I was wondering, after what has happened in Mumbai, should the Indian Public allow any Pakistani Player to be playing in IPL.

I know, linking sports with politics may not be good for the sports, but Mumbai was much more than politics.

Pakistani government has to do the needful to hand over people like Dawood Ibrahim and others to Indian Government, close down all terrorist camps on their soil, and crack down with iron hand against all those involved in these activities.

Remember, Mr. Javed Miandad has a family relationship with Mr. Dawood Ibrahim and he the very senior official in Pakistani Cricket Adminstration. It is all the more reason, we must not have any relationship with the PCB.

Tevathia sir although i m a big fan of Cricket and don't want to mixup politics with any kind of sports but its not about sports its about our country our people whom we had lost in these kind of attacks. So we should cut off any kind of relation with Pak whether its IPL or cricket or political or industrial until unless they will not do any positive act against terrorism. By calling off India tour to Pak they already lost 80crores of profit. So we must call off all the relations with Pak so that they can feel the heat.

Thats the most important thing ! Let them feel the heat in each & every way possible.

Its a sad reality that after such a heinous act too we havent been able to make them feel scared by any means. Receiving some warnings from other countries & banning an organisation arent anything much for correcting this wrong done. Till now they havent even accepted the involvement of any Pakistani clearly !

Its high time that we boycott them strictly in each & everything.
 
Politics and games should not be mixed with each other......One of the reasons of calling off the tour has been the Pak government and cricket board not ensuring the safety of the Indian cricket team.

But when it comes to matters like national security, to mount all round pressure be it tactical, financial etc we must play hardball in each bilateral relationship. Pakistan players should not be allowed to play in IPL to further support the pressure.

But all said, i doubt it would happen given the financial behemoth BCCI is and it won't let go off them easily.
 
Don't let them play on our soil

My opinion would have differed if the players in the question weren't Paki. There's no doubt sports at international level bring nations close to each other. We must appreciate the English cricket team for coming back to play the test series and more appreciable was their kind gesture of donating some part of their match fee to the Mumbai tragedy victims.
But with Pak, I must say that we better snap off all ties with them, be it diplomatic, trade, sports or entertainment. They bombed the bloody Samjhauta train which was regarded as the symbol of peace and harmony between the two nations.
To let Paki players play in IPL is comparable to 'saanp ko doodh pilaana'. Don't let them siphon our country's money to their homes.
 
The Team Franchisee

I think the best thing to do is to tell the team owners, that if they hire any players from Pakistan, the country will never forgive them. No one should watch any game that has a Pakistani Player on any of the team.

Similarly it should be told to ICL as well.

We need to make it clear to Pakistani Government that we mean buisiness and want all the Indian Fugitives living in Pak to be handed over to us ASAP.
 
The way things are moving, time is not too far when Cricket might become history in Pakistan. Pakistan will be totally Talibanised and they will ban all games. India should cut off all relations with Pakistan. Let us not get carried away by so called people to people contacts. Let us keep our relations only with civilised world.
