Symonds Not Coming to Pakistan
“I don’t think I would go,” Andrew Symonds told Network Ten of Australia. “I just dread to think what would happen if someone got hurt, let alone killed. “It’s just a situation you’d never want to find yourself in,” he added.
After receiving $1.35 million from the Hyderabad side in Indian Premier League who are spending lavishly in buying the players, Symonds do not want to take any risk, even though nobody from Pakistan even called him a monkey or anything else.
Why would anybody would want to hurd or kill this man, who goes by the name of Symonds in Australia and by some not-so-ceremonious name in India where he was bought? Anyway for the information of Australians, Pakistan isnt a bad place to play cricket, and the purpose of sport is to foster peace and harmony, and in these dire times, players should be looking to heal the wounds rather than to hurt more.
Australia was scheduled to play in Pakistan in coming March for a series which included three Tests, five One-day Internationals and a Twenty20 clash, now appears to have been reduced to just three Tests.
