The Pakistan womens’ cricket T20 team won the gold medal at the Guangzhou Asian Games after a flawless performance throughout the competition. Let me post some pictures from the finals that can do the talking much better than my words:


With India not participating, Pakistan was already the favorite going into the Olympics, but they won in good style and in good cheer. Pakistan beat Bangladesh in the finals to clinch the gold, which followed up on a surprise silver for Pakistan in Wushu yesterday.. The win in meaningful for Pakistan women cricket, Pakistan cricket, for Pakistan women, and for Pakistan itself. One feels good today for all of the above, and more!

    Naan Haleem: I was referring to majority Pakistani men in all professions….I dont know the exact figure, but it seems like its majority of Pakistani men that are hopeless, not just handful.

    Shameful performances by the male cricketers. They should be sent to pasture for a few years until they can put their act together and regain credibility!

    “….we can no longer count on men!”

    Is it a generic statement or you are referring to cricket only?
