Pakistan's brazen attempt to undermine India's victory in T20 World Cup

 Former Pakistan captain Saleem Malik's allegations that a particular player deliberately wasted balls to clear the way for India's victory in the just concluded T20 international World Cup game in the USA is totally ridiculous and unacceptable. His comments that the player concerned may have been involved in match fixing should also be condemned in unequivocal terms. Saleem Malik's comments emanated following India's thrilling victory over Pakistan by 6 runs in which India's ace pace bowler Jaspreet Bumrah played a stellar role in clinching the victory for India by claiming three wickets for 14 runs. Risabh Pant with a steady knock of 42 runs and Hardik Pandya who claimed two wickets chipped in with useful contributions. This disappointing revelation by Saleem Malik only goes on to show how difficult it is for Pakistan to accept defeat as part of the game. This attitude towards Pakistan's defeat by a veteran cricketer of yesteryear only shows the arrogance of Pakistan in not playing cricket in the proper spirit of the game. Victory and defeat are part of any game and should be accepted in a sporting manner. By trying to belittle India's glorious victory Pakistan's true nature is being unveiled. It shows a nation's aggressiveness even in the arena of sports.
