@Palvasha von Hassell: until he messes up and then he is a traitor, a disgrace and potentially a RAW agent. Why we as a nation need to go to such extremes at both ends of the spectrum?

Can’t he just be a good player with a promising outlook and great form?

@Acorn Guts:

Are you trying to tell others what they should think and feel?! What a nerve! I would not dream of calling him all the things you mention, but perhaps you would…time to put yourself right.

@ all

As a nation we find pleasure in extremes as we are generally passionate for nearly about anything. We need some intellects rather to understand the actual situation. Ajmal is a real good performer. We need to appreciate and hope for his performance to continue. Glory is by far a much stronger word to use.

P.S: The last time I heard ‘glory’ was when I saw Gladiator
