Since my childhood I used to love cricket. I used to watch it and I used to play as well. That love is long lost. If I had to figure out then it would be the World Cup ’99 that made me allergic of it. The cricket of Pakistan now a day is shameful. We have not an even a single world class player. Take a look at our team and you will have no desire to sit in front of your TV watching your heroes mugging around. Gone are the days when we had players like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Saeed Anwar, Aamer Sohail etc who used to win matches for us. I even have some strange feelings while talking about cricket of Pakistan right now.
Bad time comes on everything. It’s not at all shameful but I think this is not simply a bad time for Pakistani cricket. When you had a president who does not know heck about cricket then what else you can expect. The problems are in wide range and the most basic of them all is that we in Pakistan have undeserving people at the top in each and every field of life and PCB is no exception. PCB has never done anything useful for the cricket. They mishandled each and every issue. The recent issue regarding Shoaib Akhtar is one prime example of that. Don’t even think for a second that I am a fan of this so called cricketer. I think the problem with him is that he made a wrong decision when he decided to be a cricketer. He should have been a model or an actor but who knows what he had done there.
This may seem a bit harsh especially considering the fact that we have cleaned sweep a series. I will not mention the team because it will generate another conspiracy. May be we should invite Holland or Zimbabwe again and then again Bangladesh so Shoaib Malik could have an unbreakable winning streak as a captain.
