It has been 27 years since… (Got the titanic feel?) It has been 27 years since England last qualified for a Cricket World Cup final. In the glorious city of Melbourne, Melbourne Cricket Ground was the stadium, as they came face to face with none other than Team Pakistan (being[...]

‘Unpredictable’, if I probably see this word in a dictionary and don’t find the ‘Pakistan cricket team’ written right next to it to define this word, I’m going to be picking up another dictionary. It’s high time that dictionaries start preaching everyone this. The lesson we’ve (I’m sure I have)[...]

If Pakistani cricket was a TV character, for me it would be Severus Snape. The textbook definition of being highly unexpected, from liking to hating (sadly a very strong word but used to display the emotion only) to loving that character and crying when he dies, Severus Snape is someone[...]

“India beat Pakistan by 89 runs via the DLS method, on Sunday in World Cup’19 showdown played between the arch rivals in Manchester.” Wish there was a less polite way to say this, but after the inglorious defeat faced by our cricket team in the 22nd game of the world[...]

As time passes quickly, is any Pakistani ready to witness yet another showdown between the ‘world’s favorite versus our favorite’? I know I’m not. Especially since the last defeat our team tragically faced. It’s scarier when I think about ‘Trent Bridge’. The strip being played on today is only two[...]

Two wrong predictions actually shook up the confidence to write another piece before the match today. After an embarrassing loss that team Pakistan faced, I’m sure I was not the only heartbroken one, to not just write but even read another piece on cricket. So all the support and prayers[...]

England versus South Africa, a result that was not expected but still unfolded. Even though the protease successfully took early wickets, apparently it was not enough effort, as the favorites, team England- beautifully defended this title and rank in the opener of the world cup 2019. Giving a befitting reply[...]
