Indo-Pak cricket match in Dubai By Justice Katju

India v Pakistan

I cannot understand the attitude of opposition parties and some others who are saying that after the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor India should not be playing a cricket match against Pakistan today, Sunday, 14th September, even in Dubai

Firstly, as I have mentioned in a panel discussion anchored by journalist Neelu Vyas, as yet there is no evidence that Pakistan was behind the Pahalgam attack ( see from 23 minutes and onwards of the video link below ) :

Secondly, it is only a cricket match, not a battle, so I don’t see why politics is being brought into this.
And thirdly, and most importantly, I regard India and Pakistan as one country, only artificially and temporarily divided by a British swindle in 1947 on the basis of the bogus two nation theory, but which are bound to reunite one day under a secular government.

This being so, how does it matter who wins, India or Pakistan ? It is India which will win in either case, since India and Pakistan are really one country
