Whatever the sport is, its always important for the mental and physical development of human beings, and highly civilized nations create opportunities for various sports to improve their people’s offspring and keep them engaged in positive mental and physical activities so that their future is stabled physically and mentally and become one of the best people in the society.
As far as Pakistan is concerned, the national game is hockey and we have won all the world honors in hockey and proved our skills and the iron of the game but in Pakistan cricket is given the highest importance And the good news for the country these days is spreading from the playing field.
On the one hand, the ‘Green Shirts’ in the desert of the United Arab Emirates have made a new history by mixing the pride of the Indian warriors in the dust, and on the other hand, Pakistani players have made the nation proud by setting an excellent record of being unbeaten in the mega event.
Pakistan has faced severe difficulties in the last two decades when we saw a very difficult time after the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore and there came a time when the bad news from observers about the end of the tradition of playing cricket matches in Pakistan. It was heard, however, that the Pakistan Super League (PSL) played the most important role in bringing up strong cricket in the country.
PSL’s election has breathed new life into the youngsters active in the field of cricket and in the meanwhile, the world saw that Pakistan Super League started to be counted among the best leagues in the world. This league not only restored the positive image of Pakistan but also created a new batch of talented players for Pakistan at the international level, thanks to which today Pakistan cricket team is making a new history by chewing the best teams in the world.
It is an indisputable fact that in a country where the game is being promoted, international teams are more than happy to go there and we have seen that when steps were being taken to revive cricket in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Teams from South Africa and the West Indies visited Pakistan and played a key role in allaying security concerns. Later in September, the Kiwi team also came to Pakistan but returned due to the mischief of the neighbors and England also refused to visit Pakistan.
Pakistan did not give up on the refusal of England and Kiwis and showed the whole world in the World Cup that Pakistan is one of the best teams in the world. That is why the Kangaroos have also been offered a tour of Pakistan next year and the England Cricket Board has regretted its attitude in the past. The head of the British board has come to Pakistan to apologize while it is hoped that next year the England team will also come to play a series on Pakistani soil.
All these indicators point in a positive direction for sports activities in Pakistan. It is now our duty to provide the best facilities to the visiting teams and to give them an impression that will send a good message to the guests in order to maintain our positive identity.
In the end, our best wishes are with the national cricket team to play with all their might in tomorrow’s semi-final and whether you win or lose, our prayers will always be with you.
