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.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
