انکل، آپ نے صدیق جان کے بارے میں جو کچھ کہا مکمل اتفاق ہے، مگر کیا یہ بیٹی بہن والی مثال آپ شیخ مجیب کی بیٹی حسینہ واجد کے لئے استعمال کر سکتے ہیں؟ اگر ہاں تو آپکے لئے عزت دل سے، وگرنہ آپ اور صدیق جان میں کوئی فرق نہیں!
مجھے بہت عجیب لگتا ہے جب یوتھڑ بیٹیوں کے حوالے سے بات کرتے ہیں۔ میں پاکستانی صحافی کی حیثیت سے فخر سے نوازشریف کی بیٹی کا بھی ذکر کر سکتا ہوں اور ذوالفقار علی بھٹو شہید کی بیٹی کا بھی۔ سیاسی اختلاف اپنی جگہ مگر بہنیں بیٹیاں تو سب کی قابل احترام ہیں۔
مگر کیا یہ نیولا نما جاہل تھیوبر اپنے لیڈر کی بیٹی کا ذکر کر سکتا ہے؟ اسے اپنی فیملی کے لئے آئیڈیل کہہ سکتا ہے؟ اس کی فیملی اس جیسی بیٹیاں پیدا کرے گی؟
اور ہم تیس برس سے زائد تجربے رپورٹنگ، کالم نویسی، چیف رپورٹری، قومی اخبارات کی ادارت کے باوجود سفارشی ہیں تو سابق جرنیل جب ٹٹی خانے میں اس کی بوتھی دیکھتا تھا تو وہ کیا تھا؟
& the audacity, they know with what BTS I am connected to, in the middle of Islamabad, the capital city, G-6 Markaz & they can't promise services of even a proper 2G services yet claim to have a 5G license. LOL

Spot On! PCB should keep an eye on the production entities involved in such unsanctioned events, & involved should be banned from any direct/indirect work with PCB as in this case, this production entity is working for PCB on behalf of contractor at PCB for Category-F Domestic.
Any involvement in tournament will be considered a breach of PCB regulations and it holds the right to take due action against the participating players or officials. PCB also advises commercial and broadcast entities involved to reevaluate their association with tournament.
Tomorrow's final Match will be aired in Pashto Commentary on the @BigBaatOfficial@ArfaSays_ Bhai, you just need to install the app or browse it on the web.
پاکستان سُپرلیگ میں مکمل اردو کمنٹری شامل کرنےمیں دس سال لگ گئےلیکن دیگر علاقائی زبانوں کی بھی کمنٹری شامل کرنےمیں مزیدتاخیر نہیں ہونی چاہیے۔ اگر بھارتی لیگ میں علاقائی زبانوں میں کمنٹری ہوسکتی تو پاکستان کی علاقائی زبانوں میں بھی کرکٹ کمنٹری انٹرٹینمنٹ سےبھرپور ہوگی!🎙️ #HBLPSL11

Dear @thePSLt20 fans,
The latest announcements on the Iran ceasefire and Pakistan’s pivotal role in it finally explain why crowds were not allowed in the stadiums this season.
Not hosting matches in Pindi makes complete sense — Islamabad was clearly the chosen venue for sensitive ceasefire discussions, and the unpredictable timing demanded absolute flexibility on logistics and security.
Similarly, allowing large crowds in other cities would have diverted critical security resources away from this far more important national and global mission. When forced to weigh entertainment against helping deliver global peace, I believe every Pakistani would have made the exact same call.
I know the phrase “in the name of national interest” is often misused, but this time it was genuinely justified — not just for Pakistan’s national interest, but for a greater regional and global one.
Also, comparisons with another league that has allowed fans, are simply not valid. That country’s neighbour isn’t under attack (like ours - Iran), nor is that country playing any meaningful role in the current high-stakes diplomatic efforts. So, sure they can have their fans while we Pakistan drives global peace.
Right now, our hearts should be fuller with pride in Pakistan’s leadership and its contribution to global peace, rather than disappointment over missing PSL crowds.
This is a trade every Pakistani should happily accept - in the past, now and at anytime going forward.
🇵🇰 zbd!

Fact: Hinduism isn't a religion, it's a culture, a civilization born & evolved in the Indian Continent, it is very nicely described in the Bhagvad Geeta. From northern mountains to southern & western coast, norms & names of this civilization varies in its own local flavors.
Eda kida @fawadchaudhry sahab,
As a Punjabi Hindu, I truly respect and appreciate the celebration of Basant Panchami in West Punjab. However, there are a few important points we cannot ignore.
If you people believe Basant Panchami is a Punjabi festival — which is why you started celebrating it again after a 20-year ban — then why don’t you also celebrate other cultural festivals like Rakhdi, Vaisakhi, Karva Chauth, and similar ones?
Secondly, Basant is purely a Hindu festival. Since you rejected this, I am attaching proof that the word "Basant" comes from Sanskrit, and Hindus have traditionally celebrated it by worshiping Maa Saraswati. It’s perfectly fine if you cannot worship Maa Saraswati due to the constraints of your Arabic religion, but claiming that “this is not a Hindu festival” is simply not acceptable.

Interesting: so Sunil Gavaskar says India always Invites Pakistani artistes/cricketers/commentators, why doesn’t Pakistan do likewise? My counter qs: if you accept an invite today from a Pakistani, won’t you be called ‘anti-national’? Listen to his response.
ICC announce star-studded commentary team and exciting broadcast innovations for ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026
Media release
ICC TV is set to deliver another world-class immersive viewing experience for cricket fans around the globe at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 in India and Sri Lanka. Alongside live coverage of every match, ICC TV will provide a comprehensive world feed service to licensees, ensuring consistent, high-quality coverage across all markets.
Viewers will have access to every match of the tournament through an extensive broadcast offering that includes a pre-match show, innings interval programme, post-match wrap-up and daily highlights shows capturing the full story of the competition, right from the opening fixture through to the final.
The tournament will be delivered by six dedicated production crews operating across the eight venues in India and Sri Lanka, supported by eight broadcast kits deploying up to 45 cameras to capture the action with depth, precision and editorial flexibility. ICC TV will collaborate closely with production services partner JioStar and equipment services partner NEP to bring the event to life.
In total, approximately 720 broadcast professionals will be involved in delivering the event, spanning production, technical operations, editorial, graphics, data and broadcast management roles. The broadcast workforce reflects the international nature of the tournament, bringing together expertise from more than 20 nationalities.
The Voices of the Game
An illustrious commentary panel featuring some of the game’s most celebrated voices will deliver expert insight and analysis, ensuring fans experience every moment of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in all its colour and intensity.
Renowned broadcasters Ravi Shastri, Nasser Hussain, Ian Smith and Ian Bishop will headline the dynamic commentary team for this year’s tournament. They will be joined by Aaron Finch, who lifted the trophy in 2021, alongside other former ICC Men’s T20 World Cup winners, including Dinesh Karthik, Kumar Sangakkara, Samuel Badree, Robin Uthappa and Carlos Brathwaite.
Adding further gravitas are former ICC global event winners who know the thrill of lifting a World Cup – Eoin Morgan, Wasim Akram, Sunil Gavaskar, Matthew Hayden and Ramiz Raja. Other iconic voices from the game joining the panel include Dale Steyn, Michael Atherton, Waqar Younis, Simon Doull, Shaun Pollock and Katey Martin.
The commentary lineup in India and Sri Lanka is further strengthened by leading global broadcasters Harsha Bhogle, Mpumelelo Mbangwa, Natalie Germanos, Danny Morrison, Alan Wilkins, Ian Ward, Mark Howard, Nick Knight, Athar Ali Khan, Kass Naidoo, Bazid Khan, Raunak Kapoor and Niall O’Brien.
Preston Mommsen and Andrew Leonard will provide invaluable additional insight from the Associate Members, while Russel Arnold and Roshan Abeysinghe will bring Sri Lanka’s unique flavour to the coverage.
Making their ICC TV commentary debut are 2014 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup winner Angelo Mathews and 2025 ICC World Test Championship-winning captain Temba Bavuma.
What the commentators said:
Aaron Finch
“I’ve been lucky enough to feel what this tournament is like as a player, and now seeing it from the commentary box gives me a whole new appreciation. The pace, the pressure, the split seconds that can change everything - this is T20 cricket at its absolute best.”
Carlos Brathwaite
“This tournament has a way of creating moments that live forever, and 10 years on from Ian Bishop’s iconic commentary of our win in Kolkata, it’s an honour to take up my seat in the comms box this time around. To be able to tell the stories of other players and nations to fans all over the world is something I’m truly excited about.”
Dinesh Karthik
“To welcome the world to India and Sri Lanka through the ICC’s global broadcast is incredibly special, and this tournament will be a party. The energy, the colour, and the passion on display at every ground will make it essential live viewing, wherever you’re watching.”
Angelo Mathews
“Cricket is woven into the very fabric of both India and Sri Lanka, and the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup - full of skill, flair, and opportunity - captures everything we Sri Lankans love about the game. I cannot wait to share our nation’s cricketing spirit with fans from all over the world.”
Katey Martin
“The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup has a unique energy; it pulls you in from the very first ball and is able to connect deeply with audiences on every continent as a result. Being part of it in two amazing countries, and to share cricketing history as it unfolds, will be incredible.”
Temba Bavuma
“The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup always brings out the best of people and performances. Whether you’re in the middle, in the stands or watching from your sofa, the intensity of this tournament is unmistakable and will be felt all over the world.”
Innovative Storytelling
To further enhance how the game is explained to fans, ICC TV has commissioned two new broadcast innovations for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, developed in partnership with Quidich Innovation Labs and WTVision. Designed to simplify the complexity of cricket and bring greater clarity to analysis, these tools combine advanced virtualisation, data and storytelling to deepen viewer understanding of the game.
Pitchview reimagines how the playing surface is presented on broadcast by transforming the pitch into an immersive, data-rich virtual model. By visually mapping surface characteristics and linking defined pitch zones directly to performance metrics, Pitchview enables commentators to clearly explain how pitch behaviour influences tactics, scoring patterns and match outcomes.
Skillview focuses on moments of execution and decision-making, enhancing live analysis through precision-anchored virtual graphics that lock seamlessly to the field of play. Commentary-driven and instantly responsive, Skillview turns technique, athleticism and tactical intent into intuitive visual stories, helping fans better understand the skills that define elite T20 cricket.
The broadcast will feature other visual enhancements also designed to elevate analysis and enrich the viewing experience. Hawk-Eye will deliver off-bat tracking alongside full Decision Review System (DRS) services, including ball tracking and edge detection. WTVision will manage the on-air graphics, enhanced by detailed cricket data analytics from CricViz, ensuring data-led storytelling is seamlessly integrated throughout the coverage. Quidich Innovation Labs will also operate Field 360°, a virtual field model that brings clarity to fielding positions, tactical setups and in-game adjustments.
Beyond live match coverage, ICC TV will deliver a rich slate of non-live content distributed to broadcast partners worldwide. This will include daily player profiles, team features, match previews, venue spotlights and exclusive behind-the-scenes access, giving fans an immersive, up-close view of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup throughout the tournament.
On top of that, look at the production quality, just watch this delivery in real time! It’s disappointing to see someone undermining PCB’s hard work for quality and live streaming, solely to block other competitors by bidding low. #QeAT#PSHvSKT
