I'm not sure how many of you remember the Lombard Challenge from 1996, but those of you who do will remember it as the U-15 cricket world cup that was held in England during the summer of 96. Called the Lombard Challenge U-15 Cup, the competition was contested by 10 teams including all the 9 test playing nations at the time and Canada.
I was in Pakistan for my summer holidays at the time when the tournament was being played and I remember watching all the games Live on Star Sports. It was quite interesting to watch the

No PCB press conference is ever held without some heads turning and shouting WTF!
It all started well with Misbah stepping down from the T20 captaincy, and Zaka Ashraf announcing Mohammad Hafeez as the new captain of Pakistan's T20 team.
Well played by the PCB and Misbah in ensuring that it happened the right way with Misbah "stepping down" and not being pushed out.
I won't deny that I was rooting for Afridi to take over the captaincy once again but I guess the selectors wanted to look ahead at the

A few days ago, it was reported that Shoaib Malik was hopeful of making a comeback to the Pakistan team for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka; and keeping that in mind he had turned down county offers.
He also claimed that the counties had required that he sign a contract to choose county over country in case he was invited for Pakistan duty.
I doubted that any county contract would have that clause.
Just two days since Malik claimed to have those offers,

He averages over 50 in ODIs. He has 11 ODI centuries. 10 of those centuries have come in victories. He averages over 65 in ODI wins. And he is only 23 years old, and was a year old when his team mate Sachin Tendulkar made his international debut...
Virat Kohli has not even completed 4 full years in international cricket, yet he already boasts of achievements that some of the one day games greats did not even achieve.
Kohli already has as many ODI centuries as Viv Richards, Gordon Greenidge, and Aravinda De Silva managed in their entire

I want to. I really want to. I want to believe that Mohammad Amir was an innocent 18 year old boy who was set up by his friend and captain, and his fixer.
But I can't.
There are a lot of things about Mohammad Amir's interview that are bothering me, and I feel like we are being told a story that is not true. I feel like we, the Pakistan cricket fans, are being lied to again.
Since the interview aired, I've heard a wide variety of thoughts from the general public and Twitterati. A

The 11th edition of the Asia Cup gets under way tomorrow in Dhaka with the hosts Bangladesh taking on Pakistan.
The last time the tournament was held in Bangladesh, in 2000, Pakistan were crowned the Asia Champions. Incidentally, that is the only time that Pakistan has won the Asia Cup with India winning the competition 5 times, and Sri Lanka 4 times.
That is quite surprising considering that 6 of the Asia Cups were held between the mid 80s and year 2000, which was a period of Pakistan's dominance over India and Sri Lanka. Yet Pakistan has won
