How will loneliness be in the field of cricket?
The nesting created by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in six years is now suddenly looking like a sand palace and, with it, all the hopes that Pakistan cricket fans were attached to this breathtaking home season. On a stormy day since Friday afternoon, the whole of factionalism seems to be being sacrificed by a flood relay. The New Zealand tour would have been the most important milestone of the trip if it had been done well, but it did not happen.
And then, following the Kiwis, the English Cricket Board has now refused to tour next month, and the PCB entire, struggle has fallen back into the same ditch with a hip that was destined for the Sri Lankan team after the attack in 2009. The PCB is sad that unlike in 2009, nothing has happened this time that would have been entitled to such a humiliation. Pakistan had been hosting international cricket with great continuity, and the visit of a high-profile team like South Africa earlier in the year was an expression of the certainty that the days were now over.
The Kiwis' last-minute refusal was undoubtedly a heart-rafter moment for all cricket fans, especially Pakistan, and it is quite normal for emotions to come to an end, but there should be some difference between the expressions of common sense and the words and style of a cricket board chairman. Raja took to Twitter immediately after the attack and said that New Zealand will now listen to us in the ICC. His statement may well be summed up by the appreciation and appreciation of his countrymen, but it is quite interesting for such a narrative to succeed in an international forum. Raja, a former cricketer, and world-renowned observer must have known that the ICC's 'threat' is unjustified here because when it comes to political issues and the bilateral relations of the cricketing nations, the ICC is as empowered as the United Nations on the Kashmir issue. In terms of bilateral relations, assess the value of the ICC from here that when the test championship model was about to be decided, at first it was suggested that all countries would play at least one bilateral series. As if, India had lost points if they did not play against Pakistan. Pakistani fans were very excited about the model, but only on that point did the point get stuck, and the entire championship model fell into sourness so that the ICC had to rebuild the entire model, and it had to eliminate the condition that every country must play at least one series against each other in a championship cycle. So Raja's saying that in which world New Zealand is living seems strange because underground realities Pakistan should decide which world it is living in.
There is no doubt that the PCB has lost more than $200 million in the impact of this deportation, and if the matter comes back to zero, the same figure will increase. But Pakistan has to come back to the world of reality. Stable bilateral relations can always be built on an equal footing, and the Pakistan Cricket Board has demanded this equality at the wrong time.
Pakistan should have made this demand when the English Cricket Board, in the turmoil in Cod, was nearing bankruptcy and was requesting a three-Test series from Pakistan.
Then why did the PCB agree to spend a whole month's quarantine in the lure of just two T20 matches? Did the deal include an equalization factor from any angle? The PCB has been touring England every year for the last five years, in response to which Pakistan did not get a single home series. What kind of equal relationship did it have? Earlier this year, when Pakistani players did not get chartered flights or separate hotels, and when the Protocols were done, the Kiwi Health Minister threatened to send back the Pakistani team, which was also against diplomatic etiquette.
If PCB wanted parity, why was the team not called back in protest?
Take the example of the same canceled tour of New Zealand, that it was only in celebration of their arrival that the PCB exempted the Kiwis from quarantine. In the last two years, the no-host country has favored Pakistan in such a way that it has been exempted from quarantine. Raja is saying to the team and the fans that if we become number one, every team would like to play us. Although it sounds great, the question is, why were Pakistan having to play in Dubai and Sharjah even when they formed the Test Number One team five years ago?
Secondly, it is very important to understand what cricket is, the equality of bilateral relations in any field does not flourish based on moral principles such as religion, consideration, and formatting.
India is the best example of this. Top cricket boards do not dare to get any kind of bilateral cricket done during I PL.
This year, when South Africa invited Pakistan for an emergency series after the cancellation of the Australian tour, I PL stars like David Miller and Kagiso Ramada left national cricket to play I PL.
So, in such situations, the point of equality seems quite ridiculous. But now the question is, how can Pakistan get out of this situation? There is no satisfactory answer in the cricketing passage. Because this is political and, it can only be tried to be sorted out by political means, namely, softness and diplomacy.
Unfortunately, in the world of cricket, the government is currently of the Indian Board, which is Pakistan’s traditional rival.
It is also very interesting for a large section of Pakistani fans to see Pakistan boycott bilateral cricket with the Kiwis. Apart from the presence of Gangly and Raja, the bright thing is that Pakistan is headed by a former cricketer who is also an undisputed cricket hero across the border.
If Pan-Indian cricket relations can take a new turn, the confusion of world cricket can also be reduced and Pakistan's home cricket can also move in the right direction.
But if the PCB intends to find a solution to the problem with the help of aggression, this isolation on the cricket field is not going to give up on it soon.
