Would you be watching the sport if you were from a lesser cricket nation?

I wouldn't say "downright disgusting" but I think it's absolutely retarded. Not my place though so I can't really question them.

What are your thoughts on Panesar, Bopara and Shah? They sure as hell do not root for India

Nah, they're not Indian. They're too white/English now ;).

Well then how are they any different to the people STLIndian is talking about. For example, Gazza is an Indian guy but he was raised in Australia, does STL have a problem with Gazza rooting for AUS and not IND?

Also there is a bit of irony in STL saying people are disgusting for rooting for another nation when he himself chose to leave his home country and go live somewhere else.

Is Gazza still an Indian citizen? I wasn't even thinking about Gazza tbh was thinking about the other two members. Don't want to take names.

I have also lived in Czech Republic, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland and Venezuela. That doesn't make me any less Indian so the Missouri statement is invalid.

So his point is that he is against people who live in India and root for other nations to which they have no formal ties (ie citizenship, residency, family etc)

In that case it does make sense, but still, its a very harsh judgement and generalization to make

From what I know, they were born in England.

If say, Sachin Tendulkar decided to play for England, yes, I'd have a huge problem with that.

And, I wasn't born here, I only came here a couple of years ago.

MMA and UFC are gayer than AIDS. If I want to see two guys humping each other on the ground for 20 minutes I might as well watch gay porn.
I think one of my lungs collapsed
LOL, soz. I meant are you any good....

I never was an Indian citizen. And I've been here since before my first birthday.....
You're being too modest.

People like this are downright disgusting.
That's pretty annoying, tbh.....

Had no idea there was so much controversy surrounding me here :D
