Will Team India go there or not? Mithun Manhas’ answer to the reporter’s tricky question created a ruckus
News India Live, Digital Desk: Nowadays, as much as there is discussion about the performance of the players on the cricket field, there is more discussion about the activities outside the field. Be it Team India’s visit to Pakistan or security issues between the series with Bangladesh, news spreads like wildfire on the internet. Recently, a video is making headlines on social media, in which BCCI veteran and former cricketer Mithun Manhas is facing a sharp question from a reporter. What happened during a program was that a journalist asked him a question about the cricket being held between India and neighboring countries (especially going to Bangladesh or Pakistan amid security concerns). Often on such occasions, officials give vague answers, but Manhas Saheb’s reaction attracted everyone’s attention. People are liking his style and presence of mind very much. Actually, when it comes to playing outside India, the entire decision is not in the hands of BCCI alone. In this, the approval of the Government of India is also very important. Mithun Manhas also pointed towards the same in his conversations and handled the situation with a very calm nature. People on the internet are saying that he very ‘cleverly’ avoided the question and also said what he wanted to say. This viral clip has once again sparked a debate whether there will be a synergy between sports and security in the times to come or will sports lovers have to wait a long time to see their favorite teams clash against each other. If seen, players like Mithun Manhas taking such a stand garners a lot of discussion because they understand cricket and the condition of the players at the grassroots level very well. What do you think of it? Should cricket really continue amid security concerns? Please give your opinion in the comments.
