Cricket-loyalty tests ...

Does an immigrant cheer for his home country or his adopted country when they are pitted against each other on the field? Hard to say ... When you have made a country your home and you are earning your living there is there anything wrong in cheering for that country? After all you have immigrated to that nation in search of better opportunities which weren't exactly available in your own! You have made the nation your home. You are eating its produce. Just like you expect the citizens of your adopted nation to treat you right the citizens too expect the same kind of loyalty towards the country from you. You have become an expatriate. Your adopted country is no longer your second home. It becomes your "home". Your kids will be born and brought up there. Then what is the problem in cheering for that team? I don't exactly recommend cricket loyalty tests being conducted but what I do say is that there is nothing wrong in expecting that immigrants (Who later on became citizens) to be absolutely loyal to their adopted country! I think that brings to the fore certain other questions ... I used to have this classmate in school who used to cheer for Pakistan (For God's sake this is unreasonable). What would happen if somebody held cricket loyalty tests in India? How many I wonder would pass the test in Hyderabad (the proper one minus the Andhra suburbs) - By passing I mean voting in favor of India when we are pitted against Pakistan?
