The stadiums at Karachi ,
Lahore or Rawalpindi
are left empty. There is no festival of cricket in Pakistan
as because a sad incident two years back has made Pakistan
isolated. Countries don’t travel to Pakistan
due security reasons. The passionate fans out there are unable to see their
heroes in action and their sadness is hard to express in words.
Pakistan
as a nation, over the years, has been kicked in the abdomen, slapped on the
face, and tortured mentally. But despite all these pathetic events have failed
to dent their passion for cricket.
But, cricket is still breathing in Pakistan .
At Dubai, today, Pakistan have just completed another Test
series win by beating the 2011 World Cup runner-ups, Sri Lanka and with this,
Misbah’s tremendous run as the captain of Pakistan cricket team is reaching
towards new heights. Mishbah is yet to lose a Test series as captain.
Controversies kept on haunting Pakistan
cricket again and again but still, they have been able to conquer all the
adversities in style. They are not lucky enough to play on their own home soil,
they don’t have a powerful board to support them or their financial status is
not like their neighbours. But still their cricketing achievements have been
better than many other countries despite all these awful events.
It’s all because of their passion for this game and for this
passion Pakistan
cricket is still alive. The victory at Dubai
is another victory of passion against adversity.
Thank You
