Pakistan: Ruler of Blind Cricket | IA Hashmi

 

These days, great news is coming from the cricket fields. For the first time, Pakistan crowned the world ruler of blind cricket. The young spinner Sufyan Moqim's historic bowling in the national cricket team's decisive two-nil lead in the T20 series in Zimbabwe made the fans happy. The blind cricket team remained undefeated in the entire tournament and defeated Bangladesh by ten wickets in the final and made the whole nation proud by winning the World Cup title on the International Day of Forgiveness. The entire team deserves congratulations for this win. President Asif Zardari, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Chairman PCB Mohsin Naqvi have also expressed their best wishes for the players on winning the title of T20 World Champion. India won the three World Cups played earlier, but this time the Indian team was not allowed to come to Pakistan. Winning the World Cup is a great achievement for the national blind cricket team. All kinds of incentives, cash prizes and all necessary facilities should be provided to the players and officials.

In Zimbabwe, Pakistan cricket won an important honor in the T20 format and became the first team in the world to play 250 T20 Internationals. Against Zimbabwe, young spinner Sufyan Moqim broke the 15-year-old record of former fast bowler Umar Gul by conceding only three runs and taking five catches. Notably, Pakistan did not field superstars in this series, contrary to their previous traditions, and invested in new talent ahead of the next World Cup. The series was a test of Pakistan's new investment in which it had great success as the first step. Now it is to be seen whether the national team will be able to maintain this performance in the tour of South Africa.
