Geoff Lawson said on Monday that he had no plans to quit as Pakistan coach. Instead, he said he was looking to negotiate with Pakistan Cricket Board for extension of his contract till 2011 World Cup. That is quite amazing He seems to have caught on very quick with our culture and is a true native now. There is no tradition of resigning or quitting on the basis of lack of performance in our country. From a lowly manager to prime minister and president, civilian or uniformed, nobody ever quits due to bad performance. Why should our Gora coach do so? -MIR TABASSUM MAIRAJ, Islamabad, via e-mail, October 16.
