What is the status of the hunting case? Now that Pataudi is dead, the case against him also closes, but as a citizen of the country I would like to know what is the status of the case, what action was taken against Pataudi and the other accused, and what action remains to be taken against the other accused.
The same info is also required for Salman Khan. No matter how much of a star you are, or how rich or popular, the country's laws have to apply equally to everyone.
1.) He was from the era when there were no Live TV coverages, I happen to see him in Pune Nehru stadium, this was team selection match for England tour, the ease with which he used to score runs and boundaries, sixes were really brilliant mind you no helmets no extra ordinary paddings like now a days.
2.) First Live telecast (remeber black and white) from Wankhede Stadium India Vs West Indies, Pataudi as Captain, Clive loyd on song double century, Brijesh Patel kissed by Girl in Black in Mumbai. Ghavri I dont why bowling spinners instead of Medium pace, full packed stadium....Pataudi was a really cool guy.
No ordinary cricketer as stated of the many who have commented, will be remembered for long, also seem have financed some of the series in the time where there were no sponserships.
Why make this news so big yaar? He is after all an average cricketer. You can argue that he played with one eye. Boss, if his chance was given to a normal player, he would have performed better than this Jack eyed player. Just because he hails from Royal family, it doesn't mean you should make this news big. There are players who served India and are struggling to make their lives like B.S Chandrashekar. Rather let media make news about them atleast when they are alive so that their living conditions become better.
Sorry if I had hurt somebody. But I am just trying to bring out the truth.
None of the cricketers from the current Indian team or the ex-captains, except Kapil Dev and Ajay Jadeja could find it important to join Pataudi's last journey. What a shame?
In an era where tigers are becoming extinct, Indian Cricket has lost a Tiger... Tiger who is irreplaceable... He was in all sense a Tiger... a Great man! May his soul rest in peace... We all love you Tiger and we will definitely miss you!
