South African players Andrew Hudson, S Palframan & Fanie De Villiers in Faisalabad market (circa 1998)

A very sad photo :no: There were reports Netherland's is planning to tour Pakistan at the end of the year but I hope the tour doesn't go through. Conditions are far far from being even remotely close to safe.

Sethi and co. are busy licking their master's boots when they should rather focus their efforts towards improving Cricket at the grassroot level. Fielding, for instance, is atrocious at the domestic level.

Pakistan's temporary support for the ICC revamp hinges on the promise of six series against India, including a 'home' series in the Middle East as part of an upcoming, reworked eight-year FTP cycle. With India-Pakistan like to be held in 2015.

Just came to know the Indian Premier League (IPL) commences from today. First half of the tournament will be played in the UAE whereas the next will be held in India.

Anyone watching it? How're the crowds in Arab land?

It seems that Peter Moore will once again become the new Eng permanent Head coach, with Paul Farbrace his assistant.
Last time when peter moore was head coach of Eng team, he made Kevin Petersen the captain of Eng team, this time lets see what he actually does.

That pretty much seals any hopes of a Pietersen comeback. He was chiefly responsible for Moores ousting last time.

Pakistan All-Rounder Mohammad Hafeez, is utilizing the off season to help young cricketers learn the technical side of the game in his native city, Sargodha.
He has set up a five-day programme named ‘skills to shine’, for which 40 outstanding cricketers were selected after trials and are now being given tips from qualified coaches of the National Cricket Academy and Hafeez himself.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
