In the end, they can do whatever they want but we are here and we are not going anywhere.” – Qayaas

Question: Aren’t these guys paid money to play and win? Some of them get up to 800,000 rupees per test match. So why pay them extra for doing what they are supposed to do? Or….were they paid their cut for losing the first two? Hmmm? {Read More…}
