I AM a regular reader of Dawn for over four decades. I start reading your paper by picking up sports pages to see cricket coverage.

It is a fact that the Indian government and Indian cricket board do not allow their cricket team to play matches with Pakistan and they even lobby against Pakistan.

I would suggest Dawn to stop giving coverage to Indian cricket, for it is so painful to see this newspaper giving extensive coverage and highlighting Indian cricket team’s achievements.

Although I do agree sports should not be mixed up with our current situation with India, I still think that, as Indians show hatred for us, we should not give so much space to them in our newspaper to highlight their performance.
