I follow cricket immensely. iam very much passionate about the game, but my schedules let me follow only indian matches out of patriotism and love for my country. I watch cricket to see india win against aussies n pakis the most. the other matches i do follow them but only on rediff or news paper for a minute or two. The same would be the case of millions of we indians. ICL and IPL cannot be successful as much as icc one days and test matches are. in the pretext of entertainment indian money to the tunes of millions of dollars cannot be showered on international players making a way for our hard earned money to go to west. The domestic circuit matches should be played to enhance the skill of our indian players not to make an hole in indian money. Instead use this money for the welfare of athletics and sports person. Improve the facilities and training academies. Automatically cricket will entertain more indians. MORAL OF THE DISCUSSION: We indians are loosing money!!!

it is true that we Indians are loosing money. But consider this, BCCI is making everyone, especially aussie and pakis, including the monkey, to dance to their tunes. Paisa pheko tamasha dekho.

Does it matter?
Democracy in that country is like a new stripper in town that comes around every 7-8 years!
Pak's current coitus with democracy will last for 2-3 years (if it can last that long)!
In those 2-3 years the only dominant force there viz. the army will "maintain the peace", while these corrupt politicians plunder the country's meager resources.
Soon the army will start feeling like a chowkidar or the "look-out" person in a daylight robbery who doesn't get paid but has to do all the heavy lifting.
Once that feeling boils over, there will be a coup like the one in 1999 and another "hot shot", glib-talking general will take over!
Pak's current "urge" for democracy has been brought about by the "coaxing" of the idiotic government in the US that has been selling its equally idiotic people the notion that Democracy can be "transplanted" like a sapling from a nursery anywhere they please!
To top this rediff which apparently has many subscribers/readers in Pak, has been going overboard with the coverage as if they are recording a monumental event in the history of the region!

Pakis have been cheated in every way possible by the local leaders including military ones like Mush. So anybody now trying to cheat them should find new tricks. Jemima has some tricks but they are on the wrong side of the body. Imran got cheated but not the rest of the Pakis,
Rediff, enough already with the Paki election coverage. We in India are not so obsessed with the happenings in the loser-nation-next-door. It is a foregone conclusion. The best bomber in Pakiland will become the leader of Pakiland. Rediff, could we get back to India now ?

She is trying to promote her 2 sons as future leaders like Sonya. Only diff is she is a divorce' and not a widow and Pakis are not fools like Indians.

another foolish frog in the well....dude this is called world news.....dont read the article if you dont find it pertaining to India....and you are stupid if you think this election in Pakistan is not going to affect us....

No. It's not world news. It's just stupid Paki news. It's just fools like you who try to elevate Pakiland to world-news status. Pakiland is just an Islamic hell-on-earth, and hopefully, they will soon self-destruct. And we live in India, not Pakiland. And no, Indians and Pakis are NOT like brothers. We are a Hindu global-powerhouse, Pakiland is an Islamic hell-hole. Just because we have been cursed to have Pakiland as a neighbour doesn't mean we should be obsessed with the Pakis.

Imam Puttar, I will tell you the exact fact after the case is politically investigated. You will have to wait for just 15 years only. By that time, ofcourse, Bilwal Puttar will not know for whome should he cry ?

This Afzal is lucky that he is India. He would have been in Guantanamo if US had even the suspicion of involvement. This guy is found guilty and must be shot. Any sympathizers either in the name of religion or other wise must be locked up.

My Sentiments almost synchronize with Sri Mudaliyar's statement. In addition, I am fervently praying for the day when the people of Pakistan & India will ideologically and steadfastly unite and keep away foreign intervention especially the 'The Super Power' which by itself had foolhardily chosen the worst President for itself. It is one of my strongest views that if only Bush had kept his hands of Iraq, Pakistan would not have become the last refuge of Terrorism

Whatever Mr. Zardari has said, I feel I am listening to a different Zardari. It looks he has sudenly become a very matured politicion.We Indians welcome his stand about India.His approach if it is continued will help both the countries and it will help Pakistan more.
Left Front in order to appease muslims is not allowing Taslima Nasreen in West Bengal.Left Front claims to secular and all bengalis also.NOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THEIR SECULARISM

The left front secularism can only be applied in Hidu mazority community. It totally fails in Muslim mazority.Why the Communist do not demand secularism in Banladesh and Pakistan.
