Pakistan Cricket Team An Amalgam of Politics and Skills

 Since my childhood ,i have always been a great lover of watching different games Cricket ,hockey,Football and every game you may name i used to watch .Pakistan Cricket has always produced good cricketrs who made their name in book of cricket and registered records.Waseem Akram ,Waqar Younas,Imran Khan ,Javed Miandad ,Babar Azam Saeed Anwar and many more .Pakistan has also won matches and definitely ,you are also to loose when tho opponent palys good.But I have seen strange kind of vulnerabilty in Pakistan Cricket Team .They loose in a strange way  .



It was 1996 Pakistan India Pakistan was chasing and two great players of time were on crease ,yes it was Saeed Anwar and Amir Sohail showing Parsad boundery line making the ball play as if it were a football.Then suddenly ,change of grip and game comes in and we witnessed the famous downfall .



It was 1999 final ,played between Pakistan and Australia and Pakistan remarkably played  the whole tournament even they have beaten Australia too in group Match gracefully .And now see what happened  despite of having star studded team Pakistan got out for  only 132 so for i remember .The history of crictet witnessed another downfall of Pakistan Cricket Team and last tewnty years there are a lot many examples that have been set for generations to come .In 1996 i was young and astonished at defeat and now my son almost in same stage was standing wth mouth wide opened .




It is September,2023 ,Babar Azam who is number 1 batsman of era and ranking, breaking almost all records ,being Captain of team ,gets out for 10,then number four batsman in ranking also failed ironically then number 6 or seven in ranking also gets out cheaply.............i dont know how it happens.I think it also needs to be master on it and Pakistan team has excelled in it .

Now come to the bowling side,Shaheen Afridi ,a magician who is renowned in taking  wicket in his first over went for 70 runs in his spell ,haris rauf gets unfit,Naseem Shah i think had fallen a victim to Urvashi Routella'beauty.This brilliant bowling side allowed Indian Team to set a total of 356 which proved not only unachievable but  they wete unable to cross 150 and got out shamelessly for only 127.

Now come to the Pakistan Cricket Board's compromising nature.Asis cup was to be hosted by Pakistan and India refused to Play in Pakistan.The Pakistan offcials played trumpet and flute and said ok then please play in Dubai or Sharja .This suggestion was also refused.Najam Sethi was chair man of board who was dethroned due to political unstabilty and and Zaka Ashraf was replaced.Now anothet compromising mind set emerged and Srilanka was decided and accepted by Indian Cricket Board and Pakistan again played trumpet and flute. and if the match between Srilanka and Pakistan coyldnt be played due to rain all Pakistan officials will play trumpet and flut and poor emotional People Of Pakistan will whirl the wheel again to pay the taxes imposed by IMF and their appointef Govrtments in Pakistan who took ovet the charge from British .
