Pakistan cricket is funny. You drop players then you bring them back after a series and get rid of the replacements. Kamran Ghulam is one example. He earned selection on merit, scored a match winning century against Eng, did well in white ball too and then got sidelined silently.
By the way I was today years old when I found out that saying AJK can get you in trouble.
That's what the province is called in Pakistan.
Natalia Parvez, who hails from that province, plays for Pakistan.
How would Sana Mir know beforehand?
In all this chaos and madness a single Sane voice from India

Shastri was blaming it all on Naqvi yesterday during the trophy fiasco while protecting his players and wasim akram was sitting alongside without any spine. Just said 'yeah yeah'. Grow a goddamn spine @wasimakramlive, you are the greatest fast bowler of all times. FFS.
@ANI Unsporting? Doing everrrrrything political and then you say this? Lmao. Kya loag hou yaarh? I’m glad atleast some Indian are calling you guys out for hypocrisy. Don’t get how people take you seriously. So much hatred. So much bigotry.
Since the Asia Cup was reduced to cheap jingoism, I'm reminded of better times.
Chennai. 1999.
Pakistan defeated India by 12 runs in a thrilling test match.
Pak team took a victory lap, and every single person stood up & clapped.
Harsha Bhogle on commentary said, "I have never seen a stronger statement in favour of sport than this...There has been no jingoism."
This Asia Cup was anything but a strong statement in favour of sport.
In fact, it showed our sport in extremely poor light.
And even the commentators have been reduced to a pale shadow of their own past.
mohsin naqvi jaye bhaar mein but he is the acc CHAIRMAN. what the fuck do you mean he should get off the stage because a team refused the trophy from him.
I’m kinda shocked to be saying this but, for the first time in my life, I’m more invested in the Ryder Cup than India v Pakistan. It makes me sad. But I’ve gradually been turned off a contest that I used to love, because of the negativity surrounding it. Is it just me?
I don’t care much about cricket anymore but I always feel bad for Shaheen after these close losses. He really does leave everything on the field. It hurts to see all his efforts go in vain every time. I hope he wins an international trophy somewhere down the line.
Many twists and turns in a match but this incident when Mohammad Haris initially missed the stumps when Tilak Varma was diving was a key moment #INDvsPAK#AsiaCup#Cricket
First, we ruined a good start by the batters and restricted ourselves to a below-par total. Then, we wasted a good start with the ball and allowed India to build a partnership.
We let the game slip away in the second half of both innings.
💯 percent agreed. This is not a failure of skills. It's a failure of strategy developed by team management in which singles apparently have no place. Mindlessly aiming for 200 meant we couldn't even reach 150. Braindead planning!
