Indian fan who played prank in Pakistani jersey at Dubai match gets threats back home in UP's Bareilly

At the packed stadium, he looked for an Indian team jersey but they were all sold out. There was a Pakistan jersey on sale, though, and he bought it. He had little idea about the storm it would trigger back home. As pictures of "an Indian man supporting Pakistan" went viral in his hometown, Jaiswal's family started getting threats. Some tagged him in tweets and others appealed to chief minister Yogi Adityanath, senior police officers and BJP politicians to order an FIR against him. A distress call went out to Jaiswal from his family, which runs a flourishing liquor trade and real estate business in Bareilly, to make his stand clear urgently. He did. Jaiswal said, "Like many others, I am, of course, a supporter of the Indian cricket team. I had planned to watch the match from the stadium with my friend, who came to Dubai all the way from the US. After I failed to get an Indian jersey at the store outside the stadium, I picked up a Pakistan jersey, which was available. I thought I would tease Pakistani fans by shouting 'Hindustan zindabad' while wearing their national colours. I didn't know such a harmless thing would result in misery for me."

Asia Cup 2022: Time for coaches to pick formats too?

Sriram says all-format coaching is very difficult in packed scheduleDUBAI: With a packed international calendar and three different formats jostling for relevance and financial viability, cricketers have already started to pick and choose their formats. Quinton de Kock abruptly called it quits in Test cricket earlier in the year and Ben Stokes ruffled a lot of feathers when he decided to give up ODIs last month. As international cricket faces a threat from proliferating T20 leagues, no doubt the players are bearing the brunt of the unrelenting schedule. It's clear that cricket is slowly headed towards three types of international players to suit each format of the game, leading to another question: should coaches too pick their formats? Former India cricketer turned coach Sridharan Sriram, who is a technical consultant to the Bangladesh team for the Asia Cup and T20 World Cup, feels the time will soon come when format-specific coaching will become the norm.
