“It is a sad day for cricket in Pakistan when a team has to be publicly warned by their interior minister not to fix the semi-final match. If I was in the team I would tell the interior minister just where to keep his advice / warning,” Omar wrote on Twitter.
Chief minister has decided to watch the match on TV at his home. “I do not want to be accused of making it a trilateral peace process,” he wrote.
For Omar there is an unpleasant news on sports front in Kashmir. Argentine football coach Juan Marcos, who started an International Football Academy Trust to train the valley’s youth four years ago, has decided to leave following alleged death threats and attacks on him over the past three months.
