Pakistan's Cricket coach dictated local media..








"Before we start, let us have some ground rules. Don't make statements, ask questions and I will only answer sensible questions," this was how the great coach of Pakistan cricket Geoff Lawson started his press meet which held after Pakistan’s 64 runs loss to Sri Lanka. He also commented at a senior journalist to "improve his English" and also pointed at another reporter and told him, "If you are rude I'll have to leave".

The reporter's were shocked with his behavior and boycotted the press conference and also added that they will never have press meet with any Pakistan cricket officials until the coach apologizes to them. Lawson took charge as Pakistan coach in August on a two-year contract.

Reporters worldwide are playing a tough role every day to update news to the public at any cost. Being the coach of one of the best teams in the World cricket Geoff must have some respect for the local journalists. What do you think..???
