Hasan Ali’s moronic dance at Wagah border, @SAfridiOfficial and his tweets on Kashmir show how the Pakistani cricket team has lost the plot on and off the field. But then again, they never had the plot in the first place…..

On one hand, Pakistani players on this issue say that there were no bad intentions. The sole purpose of visiting the Ind-Pak border was to get a fresh boost of energy before taking off to England for England-Ireland test series.
Report states that India's Border Security Force (BSF) will lodge a protest with Pakistan Rangers after Hasan Ali's wicket-taking celebration towards the BSF and Indian audience at Wagah border

Where was, on the other hand, the BSF (Border Security Force) was enraged at this move intending to lodge a complaint against Hasan Ali for disrespecting the flag and affecting the sanity of the parade. As no public interference is allowed in between the flag lowering ceremonies but the Pakistani Rangers on the other side of the border has tried to affect the sanctity of this ritual and the BSF Inspector General, Mukul Goel is intending to lodge a protest against the Rangers on Pakistan Border. Not all sportsmen are like this. There are really humble players in Pakistani team as well who showed humble gestures. Check out the events here. They are an example of true sportsmanship unlike this.
