Pakistan Cricket Players guilty

Pakistani cricketers Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif were found guilty of fixing parts of a Test against England in a case that has thrown the credibility of the international game into doubt. Former Test captain Butt, 27, and fast bowler Asif, 28, face jail after a court in London convicted them of deliberately bowling three no-balls during the Lord’s Test in August 2010 as part of a “spot-fixing” betting scam.

The cricketers who have defamed the country internationally must be given exemplary punishment so that no one dare to defame the country again. I suggest no leniency should be shown to them and their guilt be treated as treason.

Further, I suggest in the greater national interest of the country, informal ban” of taking Sindhi and Balochi speaking players in national teams for cricket as well as hockey must be lifted by now and as the national teams must look like bouquet with different fragrances of flowers.
