According to media reports Indian government is planning for resuming cricket relationship with Pakistan. ICC officials have welcomed these indications.
Before, resumption of cricket relationship, Indian government should keep it in mind that Pakistan is facing worst security situation because of some extremist elements who are against War Against Terrorism policy of Pakistan, therefore, occurrence of incident like Mumbai in Pakistan is a matter of routine. Security agencies of Pakistan are fighting hard against such elements but unfortunately they are not succeeded in controlling these elements yet. These elements are using every method to destabilize government of Pakistan. They are even attacking religious gathering in Pakistan. Therefore, these elements can try again to make unsuccessful this cricket diplomacy; but, the governments of both the country should decide that they will not discontinue relationship because of the misadventures of such elements, so that both can promote real good relationship between the two countries.
Ifact the people of both the countries want to see healthy competition between India and Pakistan in cricket. There is a need to use this common interest in cricket for promotion of positive gestures between the people of both countries. In past both the countries have tried this cricket diplomacy and were successful upto some extent. Consistency in cricket diplomacy can provide breakthrough in maintaining peace in the region.
