Pulwama Attack: Yuzvendra Chahal says India must teach Pakistan a lesson 'once and for all'
Yuzvendra Chahal, who is certain to be part of the Indian squad for World Cup 2019, said that Pakistan should be taken to task once and for all.
Emotions are high in India since the Pulwama terror attacks which claimed the lives of over 40 CRPF personnel in the Jammu and Kashmir.
Several Indian cricketers have also condemned the attacks and announced their help for the families of the martyrs. Some cricketers, administrators and fans have also urged India to not play Pakistan in the ICC World Cup 2019 in England. The clash between the two arch-rivals is scheduled on June 16 in Manchester.
India legspinner Yuzvendra Chahal also expressed his sentiments on the issue.
“The decision to play the World Cup match against Pakistan has to be taken by BCCI and the government. One or two players cannot decide but I think it is high time and we need to take strong action against the perpetrators of terrorism,” Chahal told India Today on Tuesday.
Chahal, who is certain to be part of Indian squad for World Cup 2019, said that Pakistan should be taken to task once and for all.
“This should be settled once and for all. We can’t tolerate it any longer. Every three months we get to hear about our jawans losing their lives to terrorism and we can’t keep waiting for things to happen. We have to make things happen and we should settle this face to face, even if that means aar paar ki ladaai (fight on the battlefield),” said the 28-year-old leg-spinner.
