It’s not cricket

Himachal Pradesh CM Virbhadra Singh’s objection to the holding of the India-Pakistan cricket match in Dharamsala betrays more a deep parochialism than patriotism. Two of the security personnel killed in the Pathankot attack were from Himachal, as were two of six soldiers killed in Pampore. Oddly, Singh has subsequently conveyed to BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur that if the cricketing body could convince associations of ex-servicemen in the state about holding the match in Dharmasala, he too would have no objection.
