Afridi is master of changing his statements & opinions.
We shouldn't be too overwhelmed by his suddenly discovered love for India & Indian people.
This statement might have done with the intention of avoiding BOOS from Indian crowd when they play here & at least to get some sort of support from the crowd.
We shouldn't read too much from it.
This same Afridi during the last world cup had made some derogatory statement about Indian people when his team returned back home.
It would be interesting to see what statement or comments he make if Pakistan goes home without much success or early exit from the statement.
People will not TOLERATE him there like they do here.
Or It could be termed as his Maska-Polish to India & Indian media to get the job of Cricket Commentator or Expert after retirement, just like Shoaib Akhtar is doing at present.
These guys should have shame to express such a comment against Afridi. What Afridi said is correct. is there any country is dared to play any game in Pakiistan, but any country will wish to play any game in India. In this condition they cannot speak wrong of India. They should keep their months shut so the cricket lovers in Pak will come out and play.
It would have been perfectly ok if this was said by any Indian about Pakistan. At least on this part Pak is better than India. They don't show any soft corner towards its arch rival.

Yes. Sunil Gavaskar had also praised love n hospitality by Pak people. India is most tolerant country. Believes in Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam what is wrong in praising right thing ? Where are secularists?
