It's nice to see your patriotism, but one day cricket is just the "icing on the cake" and can never really be compared to test cricket, the pinnacle of the game: these are the words of your own former great, Imran Khan. Not too far ago, I recall you replying to someone on your comments section that T 20 was the future of the game and Pakistan's success at the T20 Cup proved that Pakistan were the best side, or words to that effect. So while your understanding of economics is indeed deep, clearly that of cricket isn't.vicks1980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848640164815342479.post-32087547750049233952011-03-19T18:26:46.419-07:002011-03-19T18:26:46.419-07:00Too bad Pakistan could not co-host the world cup d...Too bad Pakistan could not co-host the world cup due to high security risks (fall out from the brazen attack on Sri Lankan Team).<br /><br />Estimated loss is $50 million and that is a conservative figure considering total revenue generated, including TV/Media and sponsorships, is $1 billion.Iqbal Singhnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848640164815342479.post-36399458844815756492011-03-19T15:48:33.879-07:002011-03-19T15:48:33.879-07:00I am an Indian and dislike Pakistan and Pakistanis...I am an Indian and dislike Pakistan and Pakistanis.
