Finally a sigh of relief that Pakistan has qualified for hockey world cup 2018 which is to be played in India next year.

Even though we came on 7th position at Hockey World League Semi-Finals but still we are not going to miss out on world cup which was the chance before.

Need to work very hard now especially considering that world cup is in India.

So finally lala has scored his first T20 century after only 256 matches. Way to start a career!

His breathtaking 42-ball century led Hampshire to a crushing 101-run victory over Derbyshire in the first T20 Blast quarter-final.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had requested Asian Cricket Council (ACC) to move under 19 Asia Cup from India to Malaysia citing security reasons and ACC has accepted its request. Now the tournament will be held in November in Malaysia.

The PCB had raised its objections to touring India for the Under-19 Asia Cup, which was to be played in Bengaluru in November. Given the tense political climate between India and Pakistan, PCB chairman Najam Sethi, who also heads the ACC, tabled a resolution to get it shifted. The BCCI had already written to the Indian government, seeking clearance to host the event as it would include a team from Pakistan.

No decision on senior Asia Cup tournament has been taken yet which is to be held in India next year.

The Western Region qualifying round for the Under-19 Asia Cup will be hosted by Kuwait, despite discussions around the venue following the diplomatic crisis in the Gulf. The round will include Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Oman and Bahrain. According to Sethi, the nine teams in the Western Region pool will play each other, including Qatar as well as teams from countries that have broken diplomatic ties with it.

What a match that wa.  Amazingly booked. I love how it was just a car crash. Just impact after impact. No one was able to get much of a moveset it in. I'm sure Vince loved it.

By the way is it just me or did Samoa Joe get very little offense in during this match?
