Sports is more powerful than the government’s in curbing the menace of terrorism..!
My observations dated 2 March, 2014.
Victory in the Mother of all matches..!
Allah Blessed Pakistan with a miraculous victory over India at FatehAllah, Bangladesh.
Heartiest congratulations to the entire Pakistani nation and all the cricket lovers world over, on winning a cliff hanger of a match against India.
Ultimately this match turned into an Afridi Vs India affair.
The last six of Afridi reminds us of Javed Miandad’s last ball six many decades ago at Sharjah Vs India.
Nothing unites our nation like sports.
Sports has the power to change Pakistan…it has the power to inspire.
It has the power to unite Pakistani people in a way that little else does.
It speaks to the Pakistani youth in a language they understand. Sports can create hope for the entire Pakistani nation, where once there was only despair, lawlessness, hunger, poverty, drugs, suicide bombings and alarming increase of suicides, due to the economic hardships.
It is more powerful than government in breaking down the menace of terrorism which has blown the country to the smithereens.
