Please, please think before you make ridiculous comments like this. It is just so mis-informed it's not even funny.

There's been a few worse. Not many though.
it is just funny reading most of your comments here.
first of all what i said was my opinion and it should be respected damnat..
Second, what made me say all this is the Aussie/English players hypocrisy and ignorance.

don't get me wrong my heart goes to all the victims of this current Terrorist act... and it is always sad to hear about atrocities like this.. but one thing we know from the experience that things like this could happen anywhere at anytime..to talk about who to blame will take this toward politics but what is wrong is labeling one country and one nation for all this..
for a while i have been frustrated about this.. i have heard lot from Aussie/english players saying Pakistan is not a safe place to play cricket..they literary labeled Pakistan as a Terrorist country while they went to India to play for icl/ ipl knowing that India and Pakistan aren't that far..knowing.. if things like this can happen to Pakistan it could happen to India and to any part of the world.. they went to play for ipl to full their bank accounts while they take a way the cricket from Pakistani fans by not touring Pakistan and not playing champions trophy... Ricky pointing, Andrew symonds and Mathew Hayden and many other Aussie/english players literary didn't miss a chance to take their shot at Pakistan..

one great thing that came out of this as a prove that things like this can happen anywhere..it simply is a slap to their faces and it proves that it is idiotic to label one country for atrocities like this.. the sooner the Aussie/ English players know this the better it is for the world of cricket..

someone here mention the idea of cricket separation.. well sure.. certainly that is what happened during the Asia cup.. it will happen later next year when India is going to tour Pakistan..but one thing i want you all to think about when the Indian, Sri Lakan and Bangladishi players didn't have any problem touring pakistan..staying in pakistan and playing aganst pakistan and will not have any problem playing in doing that in future.. this means something here. well this prove my point.. it isn't about safety it is about who has the guts and balls to go and play their.. certainly the Aussies and English players don't have that..

Let's see you travel anywhere to play a series of games, a bomb explode anywhere near you and you decide to stay on in that country.

Not one incident in Australia, one in England compared to numerous in both India and Pakistan, the latest of which those with American and British passports were specifically targeted, for goodness sake. And you wanna say they're wimps for going home? You're kidding, right?
