No gags today, just a solemn, grateful thanks that no cricketer was killed in this morning’s attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in Lahore. Scant consolation we suspect for the families of the five policemen who were protecting them.
Naively perhaps, we’d always believed that cricket was somehow sacrosanct and that no terrorist organisation, however desperate or loony, would deliberately target the greatest game and its players.
It’s especially shocking that this has happened in Asia, where cricket is almost revered as a religion itself.
Seems there is no line that human depravity will not cross.
