Shah | 7 years ago | Reply You, Malala should back and cheer soccer and rugby as you now are settled in UK and your loyalties and false praises are for them... leave my country alone... we will manage and hope persons like you dont come back and make my country filthy again ... PSL3 hope fully will be payed in Pakistan... at least we are sure .. that you, being a coward and soul selling person, will not have enough courage, guts and pride to be present in those playoffs; So, praise, congratulate and clap for those who are playing soccer and rugby matches and Brit players. ;
