New Delhi – After Pakistan refused to play its match against India in the T20 World Cup cricket tournament, the International Cricket Council has warned Pakistan of strict action. In response, Pakistani YouTuber Arslan Naseer has released a video threatening the ICC.

In the video, he says that the ICC office is located in Dubai. Had it been in India, “we would have blown it up with missiles”, he claims. He further states that only 25 people sit in this small office and watch films. “How did they dare to question the Pakistan government ? Do they even know who the Pakistan government is ? The Pakistan government is the father of the International Cricket Council”, he says.

He goes on to threaten that rockets would be fired and even the two-room office would be wiped out. He adds that only the clothes of Jay Shah, the ICC chairman, would remain. He also says that the ICC should be thankful that it is sitting safely in Dubai.

Editorial Perspective

Just days ago, Balochistan’s freedom fighters taught Pakistani soldiers a harsh lesson. When Pakistan is reduced to begging and faces the real possibility of fragmentation, this is a telling example of the daydreams its citizens continue to indulge in.
