In what appears to be a callous oversight by the Indian foreign ministry officials, Pakistan’s T20 team for the Champions trophy had a nightmarish experience when they were forced out of a Chandigarh hotel on Sunday. The team, Faisalabad Wolves, led by Misbah-ul-Haq, was asked to leave the hotel because its members were issued visas that allowed them to stay only in Mohali, where the match venue is located, and not in adjoining Chandigarh. The team spent the night at the club house of Mohali stadium. The Indian cricket board officials spoke to the foreign ministry, urging the latter to find an early solution to the issue. Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) joint secretary GS Walia said: “The BCCI is already in talks with the ministry of external affairs and the home ministry and I am hopeful that the issue will be resolved at the earliest. Until then the team will be accommodated in the clubhouse. If the issue is not resolved by today evening, I think it will be sorted out on Monday for sure.” Chandigarh and Mohali are adjoining cities but they come under different jurisdictions, leading to this confusion. While Chandigarh has kept pace with the changing times and boasts of at least three five-star hotels, Mohali has no such facilities. In the past also, whenever Mohali hosted an ODI or any match of an international repute, the visiting team has been granted a visa for both the cities. Faisalabad Wolves, who might have been looking to settle down, acclimatize with the conditions and prepare for the matches ahead, were left with nothing else to do but wait. “I can’t say much on this; it’s out of our hands. But, I hope things will be sorted out,” said Wolves coach Naveed Anjum.
this is sad thing to happen
What more do you expect from them two face
Damn India. Damn the cricket. And come back to the country immediately. We should not allow ourselves to be kicked around. Enough is enough.
This does not look like and oversight issuing one visa to the Pakistan team. It looks more like a way of causing embarrassment to the team.
It's a shameless team from a shameless country, whose prime minister does not have even the courage to condemn the Taliban terrorists butchering its army and people. The team will not come back because there is not iota of self-respect in them.
Indian are not known for their hospitality. They are selfish and greedy. India is the rape capital of the world. One in four Indian men "admits" committing sexual assault, according to Pew and Harvard research. Dirty Indians are always up to dirty tricks. Their hearts are dirtier than their faces. India is a big country with a very small heart. This was planned and not an oversight.
" Hore Chopoo"
People were dying to travel across the border !!
I wonder why we are desparate to go to India a Hindu terrorist state, looks at every thing with jaunduced eyes. What shoaib Akhter has said few days back is really appreciable
why we are desperate to play with India,,,where you do not have any respect as a neighbor or a nation
I can go to India when ever I want I don't need a Visa but will I go to the rape capital of the world only if I am crazy.
The only thing they want for Pakistan and Pakistanis is insult! Indian will not let a single opportunity to insult Pakistanis. Their recent decade of progress has gone to their heads.
Pakistanis and any other tourists should stay away from India where they are not welcome.
So for now while you are there take revenge on the cricket field and come back.
