Tensions between Indian and Pakistan are at a peak after Jaish-e-Mohammad terror group attacked a CRPF convoy in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama. Over 40 Jawans were martyred and India took massive revenge at the terrorist group by launching air strikes on Jaish’s terror camps in Pakistan’s Balakot. Bollywood stars, sports fraternity and others lauded Indian Air Force while condemned Pulwama terror attack.
Each and every citizen of the country is trying its best to help the families of Bravehearts and BCCI along with the Indian cricketers also thought of paying tribute to these soldiers in the third ODI of the series which was played against Australia in Ranchi. In this match, the men in blue were not wearing their usual caps but instead, they were seen in camouflage military caps.
However, this did not go well with Pakistan. Pakistan’s information and broadcasting minister Fawad Chaudhry accused India of politicising cricket. Also, he demanded that the International Cricket of Council (ICC) should take stringent action against BCCI and team India. The Pakistani minister further went on to say that if Indian team keeps on doing such things, the Pakistani team should also wear black bands in order to tell the world about the injustice that India is doing with Kashmiris. In a tweet, Irked minister also asked Pakistan Cricket Board to make a formal complaint with ICC.
Also, Pakistan’s foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi supported Fawad Chaudhry and asserted that ICC should take action on its own without the matter being taken up by PCB as it is ICC’s responsibility.
In the meantime, Times of India reported that BCCI had already taken permission from ICC for the Indian cricketers wearing camouflage military caps in the memory of the soldiers who have lost their lives in the Pulwama incident.
Well, this shows jealousy of Pakistan is at peak…
