From Aakar Patel in the Mumbai Mirror:
Shiv Sena is attacking Sachin for saying he is proud to be Maharashtrian but he plays for India. We tried to think of what is wrong with saying that but couldn’t figure out why Sena is angry. Then we tried to figure out what Sena does better than Sachin and again we came up with nothing. But here’s what HE can do that THEY cannot:
- Actually beat Pakistan instead of constantly talking about it
- Be world’s best at something (vandalism not counted)
- Show modesty and politeness
- Be a role model to kids
- Unite all Indians
