Loading ...Damn it!!! It all Makes Sense
I was jogging in the morning last week or so, and lot of issues just popped in front of me about the recent terror attack on SL team in Lahore and how can they just shoot and escape so easily especially when they were promised security of the highest standards. That too no casualties to the SL team other than minor injuries even though they were lame ducks and could have easily been killed, all of them.
Why will someone do it and what was the motive behind it especially attacking the cricket team, first time in the history of the cricket. Just if you ponder on who gains by this is little confusing but let’s reverse the deal, who loses in the immediate near future – cricket but which cricket – is it Pakistan Cricket or who? Pakistan cricket was anyway in doldrums and no cricket team worth the salt wanted to visit except our southern neighbor - so they had not much to lose more than what they had already lost. So who else was it – Damn it is our IPL. What an ingenuity planning and execution, most cost effective and perfect planning for recession time!!!! Without entering India, without affecting Indian cricketers and without spending a huge amount of money they did what they did with pretty much the same effect what they had desired – to cancel the IPL, to the scare the people world-wide to attending and participating in this event – pretty much it is the current status as of today. I guess the objective was, What if I can’t play or not allowed to play IPL, I will make sure that IPL itself won’t be played and seems like they will consider themselves they have achieved the goal, unfortunately 
When you think hard on these lines it all fits into it, easy target, and no invasion just do it on their home soil, total inexpensive effort but pretty much the same effect (or trying to get IPL cancelled) – what a innovation Sirji!!!
When we were kids playing or rather when involved in fights, we used to hear this – even if I lose two eyes I will make sure you will lose an eye. Gandhi said an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind but someone said what the heck, it makes us even. All these make me wonder whether this was a well plotted drama to dethrone IPL.
Sorry all are just my opinion, my heart goes out to those who were killed in the act and those poor cricketers who were used like pawns in the selfish people/board/country’s games – wonder who is now fixing matches and their fates.
I feel we should consider this as a challenge thrown at our country and our people and our going strong economy, and we should respond stronger by making sure that IPL will happen and will be a huge success. Government and corporate world need to invest heavily to make sure this is a great success with no issues of security whatsoever and government should stand behind the whole event. We need to answer back to the world and most importantly to those cowards that “India can do and can deliver”. This, in the long run will give a great credibility be it in the cricket world and in the corporate world.

Nice article, but I am not sure that, terrorist attacked SL team to stop IPL, because they keep on doing these kind of things without proper reason(thier old habbit pattern). The way you said to regain our confidence and to show our power to the world is :
>>”We need to answer back to the world and most importantly >>to those cowards that “India can do and can deliver”.”
This is not only for the IPL, also for mumbai attack.
