weapon system, state
media said on Sunday, amid
mounting tensions in the
region following a series of
missile tests by Pyongyang.
Over the past few

of a medium-range ballistic
missile last Sunday, as
Washington seeks to ramp
up pressure on Pyongyang to
curb its nuclear ambitions.
The North’s official
Korean Central News
Agency said Kim “watched
the test of a new-type antiaircraft
guided weapon system”,
which was aimed at
“detecting and striking different
targets flying from any
direction”.
KCNA did not give the
exact date and location of the
drill. Pyongyang first tested
the new weapon system in
April last year when some
defects had been discovered,
but Kim said the latest test
verified that all glitches had
been “perfectly overcome”,
KCNA said.

weapon system “to detect
and track targets has remarkably
improved and its hitting
accuracy has also increased”
compared to last year, the
young leader was quoted as
saying.

KARACHI: Electricity

the city including Lyari,

unwelcome guest – loadshedding
– on the first of

Fair price stalls required
to control profiteering
KARACHI: Like previous
year, this Ramzan also
begin with sharp price hike,
with rates of eatables, fruits
and vegetables touching the
sky. However, the city
needs a lot of fair price
shops and stalls by the government
and philanthropists
to ensure that poor and low
income people can also purchase
Seheri and Iftari for
their families.
Poor planning at the
government level, cruel
profiteering mentality of
traders and shopkeepers and
low role of philanthropists
and religious organizations
to set up fair price shops
and stalls in the city are
behind the neck-breaking
price hike in the holy month
of Ramazan.
There is a need to introduce
the culture of selling
daily use commodities,
especially eatables, at low
profit margin to greet the
holy month of Ramzan. If
the citizens, social organizations
and philanthropists
arrange fair price shops and
stalls at community level,
the blessings of Ramzan
could also be extended to
the poor and low income
families. It is suggested that
besides arranging Iftar stalls
on roads and streets, the
generous Karachiites and
sensible trade community
should also arrange community
level fair price stalls
to facilitate people.

Pakistan 7th most adversely affected
country in world by climate change
KARACHI: Pakistan is
7th most adversely affected
country in the world by climate
change. Despite having
high vulnerability of
future climatic changes.
According to Pakistan's
new Economic Survey
2016-17 , the government
has developed national policy
to combat climate change
and an action plan is being
developed to effectively
implement its concerns
through sustainable planning.
To materialize the
efforts regarding protection
of climate change, the government
has recently passed
“Pakistan Climate Change
Act 2017”. The legislation
has in turn created climate
Change Fund, Climate
Change Council and
Climate Change Authority
to implement the Climate
Change Act.
Keeping in view the
challenges and distortions
caused by global climate
change, the worldwide
efforts are underway to
mitigate the devastating
effects. Pakistan, like
many other countries, is
fully cognizant of this
issue and has already
undertaken various programs
and projects.

80,000 hectares in 200 villages
and creating climate
resilience. These interventions
are aimed at restoring
ecosystem services including
carbon sequestration,
and will help to support
improved and new livelihood
opportunities. In this
context local community
participation in the planning,
implementation and
monitoring of all such
activities would play a crucial
role. Development of

This he said as a chief guest
while inaugurating Shakir

of Sadar Muhammad
Shakir's book " Fikre
Shakir" . He said that it was
a fact that unemployment
was the biggest issue of the
country and PPP government
was trying its best to
address the issue and as
many 40 thousands new
jobs would be provided to
the youth in the new budget.
He stressed upon the private
sector to come forward
and to play its effective role
to provide jobs to the unemployed
youth. The minister
Mukesh Kumar Chawla
added " Dr. Afzal of Shakir
Medical Centre Gharo is
doing well to serve the
needy people and it is the
need of the hour that such
more philanthropists should

it was in the process of
restoring power supply to
major water pumping stations
including Dhabeji and
Pipri stations.
The impact on
Hyderabad Electric Supply
Company (HESCO) was
significantly higher in comparison,
the NTDC
spokesperson noted,
explaining that the national
grid usually supplies 550
MW of power to Karachi.
"Power is expected to
resume from Jamshoro and
Hubco power plants soon,"
the spokesperson said.
Almost 50-60 percent of
the metropolis faces a lack
of electricity at present,
Dada said, reiterating the
same reason behind the
power outage as that of the
NTDC spokesperson.
“A 500-KV Jamshoro
transmission line caused
the power outage,” Dada
explained, adding that
efforts are underway to normalize
the impacted areas.
Most countries still not
prepared to tackle Ebola
and Zika diseases
KARACHI: Despite
progress made since the
Zika and Ebola crises, a
report released today by the
International Working
Group on Financing
Preparedness (IWG), established
by the World Bank,
shows that most countries
are not adequately prepared
for a pandemic, and the
world is still doing too little
to finance recommended
actions to strengthen pandemic
preparedness.
The report, entitled From
Panic and Neglect to
Investing in Health Security:
Financing Pandemic
Preparedness at a National
Level, lays out 12 recommendations
to ensure the
adequate financing of the
capabilities and infrastructure
required to prevent,
identify, contain, and
respond to infectious disease
outbreaks.
Many countries chronically
underinvest in critical
public health functions like
disease surveillance, diagnostic
laboratories, and
emergency operations centers,
which enable the early
identification and containment
of outbreaks. So far, 37
countries have completed
the rigorous peer-reviewed
assessments, called the Joint
External Evaluation (JEE),
of their preparedness capacities
to identify their gaps
and needs. But that leaves
162 countries that have not.
Moreover, only two of the
countries that have completed
this assessment have used
the results to devise costed
plans. The report urges
national governments to prioritize
financing preparedness
in their domestic budgets,
as should international
donors.

Empowering widows with
skills and livelihoods urged
KARACHI: Mirpurkhas
is said to be the rich district
in terms of agriculture and
producing variety of fruits.
Besides this, there is career
potential among illiterate
and marginalized women,
specially widows, who produce
variety of beautiful
items by stitching colourful
threads and have art of texturing
pieces of clothes for
local markets. But they need
support from philanthropists,
traders organisations
and government institutions
so they may contribute to
end poverty through their
skills. Quite recently,
empowering widows with
skills and livelihood programme
have opened doors
of 200 beneficiaries of
Mirpurkhas city to live with
prosperity and ease their
families.
Obviously, these widows
belong to low-income families
and were dependent on

their families for life. But
now the change has come to
them, when they learned
skills and started their own
work and live with dignity.
Saima, one of these beneficiary
widows, sharing her
experiences, she got during
training course, said "I
never imagined to move out
of home and learn something
like this. It was surprise
move that a group of
young women activists
brought message and
offered to learn at a center,
where some skillful experts
are available to teach
women free of cost."
"Among others, I joined
the center, learned little for
three months and now earning
my own independently.
This initiative inspires
young girls of neighbourhood
to come, spare two
hours and learn," she said.
She accredits Arts
Foundation for this, which
inspires women to learn
skills, earn better living and
ease families. The organisation
established center under
'Augmenting widows access
to decent work through
vocational skill project' supported
by USAID under the
Small Grants Program
(SGP), eight-months ago.
Another woman Farzana
said it was inspiring
moment for her to come out
and joined this training center
and learned enough. "It
has not only made me able
to earn with dignity but save
my life. Because, after the
death of my husband I had
nothing to do. I was dependent
on others within family,"
she added.
She appreciated teachers
and friends, who taught the
fellow widows during the
period and contributed to
put many women on right
track to have economic
source, livelihoods.

Nation of Pakistan presented
huge thanks and
salute to the Dr Abdul
Qadeer Khan on his unforgettable
services in
becoming Pakistan ‘7th
Atomic Country’ and
‘First Islamic Country’ on
world map.
Pakistan achieved
“credible nuclear deterrence”
on December 10,
1984, and perfected delivery

90s, Dr Abdul Qadeer
Khan tells.
In his first piece written
exclusively for a
Western publication, Dr
Khan says that the West
should not be afraid of the
country’s nuclear programme.
He also boasts of
accomplishing a remarkable
feat by making
Rectangular Baffle: COM-

He said, the objective of
this research is to develop
the numerical model for
the prediction of flow

According to him,
Pakistan’s nuclear

“Don’t overlook the
fact that no nuclear-capable

to aggression or
occupied, or had its borders
redrawn. Had Iraq
and Libya been nuclear
powers, they wouldn’t
have been destroyed in
the way we have seen
recently. If we had
nuclear capability before
1971, we wouldn’t have
lost half our country after
a disgraceful defeat,”
Khan said.

'Father of nuclear bomb’
faced 5 years house arrest
ISLAMABAD: Pakistani nuclear scientistAbdul Qadeer
Khan waves after his release from house arrest. – File Photo
High court ordered released of Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan
and said he was not involved in selling nuclear secrets to
Iran, North Korea and Libya.
Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Pakistani scientist accused of
selling nuclear secrets, was today freed from five years of
house arrest by a court and immediately declared that he can
now "lead a normal life". Khan, lionised as the "father" of
Pakistan's atomic bomb, confessed in 2004 to selling nuclear
secrets to Iran, North Korea and Libya. He was immediately
pardoned but detained in his home.
In an interview with the Guardian after this morning's
court ruling, the metallurgist said he had no plans to travel
abroad or engage in domestic politics. Looking relaxed and
well, the 72-year-old strolled in the front garden of his plush
villa in Islamabad, playing with a pet dog and receiving wellwishers.
"It's a nice feeling, the worry is gone. I can lead a
normal life now, as a normal citizen. It's a fine feeling," he
later said by telephone.
Khan was detained in early 2004 after making a televised
confession to nuclear proliferation, following intense international
pressure on Pakistan. His nuclear trading network
had been discovered by western intelligence agents.
Anational hero in Pakistan for spearheading the country's
nuclear weapons programme, Khan subsequently retracted
his confession.
He said that, aside from having to maintain guards
around him, he had been freed with the "blessing" of the
government, which had been "very helpful".
Khan has been fighting a long-running court case against
his detention, saying he had not been convicted of any crime.
Under the previous regime, led by the then army chief,
Pervez Musharraf, he had little chance of successfully challenging
his arrest, but the civilian government has been flagging
its wish to see him freed.
Khan's lawyer said the high court had declared him a free
citizen. "The court has said as he was not involved in nuclear
proliferation or criminal activity, there is no case against him,
therefore he is a free citizen," Ali Zafar said.
Mr. Irshad Ali Malik
delivered his M. Phil
Seminar on “Nuumerical

through forward step channel
with fixed single and
double baffles to measure
velocity and pressure contours.
Prof. Dr. Mumtaz
Hussain Mahar said, all
researchers have presented
their research in befitting
manner. The research will
benefit the society. He said,
we are providing congenial
atmosphere of research to
our scholars.
Prof. Dr. Ahsanullah
Baloch also spoke on this
occasion and shared his
views about the research
conducted by the scholars.
A large number of
scholars and students
attended the seminars.

Should electronics or laptops replace
printed text books in education!?
Should electronics or laptops replace printed text
books in education!? It’s a question that can revolutionize
the way this world can learn and educate
for lightning progress and prosperity worldwide,
if adopted.
Many countries are already on slow to fast track for
replacing printed text books with electronic education
such as laptops or mobiles. With enough education
budget and human resources, those countries could
afford it.
The use of personal technology devices in the classroom
is prevalent at several colleges and universities.
Rather than embracing this trend, some faculty, departments
and even entire institutions have started putting
limitations on students’ use of personal technology in
class.
It started with teachers asking students to put away
their mobile phones. Now instructors are also asking
students to keep their laptops closed for the duration of
class. This prevents multitasking, keep them off of
social media sites but reasonably limits distractions to
others.
While it is inevitable that students will be distracted
at times, putting constraints on the use of personal
technology devices will not solve this problem.
Restricting use of devices in the classroom is moving
away from the trend of improving education by integrating
technology into classes and an entire education
system.
Reasons may be almost countless on why educational
institutions should continue to introduce and
practice technology instead of stepping back. Students
are technology natives. Using technology is second
nature to students. They have grown up with it and
incorporate it into almost every aspect of their lives.
Notebooks, tablets and cell phones are all technology
that students are accustomed to and can use as ancillary
learning aids. They should not lose access to
potential learning tools that have known benefits in a
classroom. Students use e-books. Many students are
purchasing digital editions of textbooks instead of traditional
printed copies for a variety of reasons, including
cost efficiency, ease of accessibility, and environmental
friendliness. E-books are typically accessed
through a student’s personal device, such as a notebook,
tablet or cell phone. Students should have access
to them to look up information during class. Students
want streamlined organization. Personal technology
devices have a range of features that can aid students
with organization, such as note-taking applications,
calendars and virtual sticky notes. These help students
stay more organized by keeping all of their information
centralized and connected between devices. Users
can find what works for them and tailor their devices
to help them perform more effectively. Students need
access to supplemental information. Mobile devices
give students internet access. Although it can be used
inappropriately by some (such as to check Facebook
or Twitter), students often use the Net to find more
information about a topic being discussed in class. Not
only can students use their personal devices to find
extra data on their own, but professors can provide
additional information that is easily accessible to their
students. Students can prepare for work in the field. At
the higher-education level, many students participate
in field work as part of their specific areas of study.
Much of this work requires the use of technology. For
example, graphic design students may work on real
projects that require relevant applications that are
accessed through their personal devices. Learning how
to use these apps in the classroom allows students will
prepare them for using them outside of it.
Laptops should be in schools because laptops will
be much faster than text books. Laptops have more
information then text books. Laptops are much faster
to look up things. Students prefer using laptops to take
notes over paper and pencil methods because it is
neater to type, and takes up less room. Many schools
already require typed papers in English, history, and
foreign language classes, and having your own computer
makes it much easier than having to use a flash
drive to transfer documents between school computers
and your own device. We use computers everyday of
our lives. Kids think they should be allowed to have
laptops at school. This also helps the teacher because
instead of students losing their assignments, they have
it saved in their computers. This may mean yes to laptops
in school even for 6th to 12th classes.
Also, some even say that I need to start saving the
earth’s resources. In a few years much of it may run
out or get reduced in its efficacy. Schools use thousands
of packs of paper a year, meaning several thousand
trees need to be cut down. Laptops eliminate this,
plus are more organized, storing all the work in one
place. Plus, they have less risk of being lost or blown
around by the wind everywhere. Laptops have become
a very important part of schools today. Not only should
teachers and instructors have them but the students
should have one also. The school could save so much
money on books and paper if all the students had their
own laptop. Every school should be working to a one
to one situation.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Cell phone addiction
Dear Editor,
What have we come up to? It seems like now a day we are more and more attached to technology. What
I am referring to is our cell phones. Cell phones are not so much a device but more like a part of us. It
seemed like only yesterday, cell phones were more for business people. Now it’s a whole different story.
There are approximately 88% of the teens in between ages 12-17 that own a cell phone (“Teens, cell
phones, and texting”). This is a great number of teens compared to 51% back in 2006. We teens have made
cell phones much of an attachment to us. Everywhere we go, we can see teens with there cell phones out,
whether one will be at the park, at the movies and sometimes even at church. This is an issue that has to
have an action on because there seems to be some kind of addiction. What I refer to is that now a days most
of us teens seem to not get through the day without our cell phones.
Basic Communication
Although owning a cell phone can be beneficial because there is always a need for communication
between one another, cell phones only give us basic communication. What I mean is that we want to stay
connected with our friends and family but we don’t do it by calling but rather texting. Although texting is
a form of communication, it sometimes just misleads us to forget too express ourselves. There are more
teens that texts now than actually make a call. The graphs show that teens enjoy texting rather than picking
up the phone and saying “hello”. As a teen myself I know its true. I find it easier to text than to call but
in reality we are loosing the form of communication where one can hear the reaction or expression of language.
54% of all teens are texting while only 38% rather make a call (Pew Research). One in three teens
send more than 100 texts messages a day (Pew Research). This is a vast rise since back in 2006 and we can
see that it is only going to be a higher rise on time.
Importance of cell phones
This is a call to action for us teens to limit ourselves on texting before it is a major change in who we
are. What I mean is that sometimes it’s a toll on us when we do not have a cell phone. As an example we
have 16 year old Phillippa Grogan who said “Id rather give up, like, a kidney rather than my phone” (Teens,
cell phones and texting). This for some of us might be how we would think. We become too attached to our
phone that we can’t give it up. This is because we have our own little world when we have our phone. As
a female teen myself, I enjoy texting because I can gossip with my friends without people hearing, this I
think is true for most girls and some guys. Some of us give way to much importance to our cell phones
rather than actually going out and talking to our friends. Sometimes when we are out with friends we are
still texting. What happened to the times where hanging out actually meant hanging out. Actually being able
to have a good time with out having a side conversation wit someone else who is not there.
Private World
We as teens enjoy texting because we feel more privacy about what we say when people are around. I
think we text because it keeps our parents from knowing what we are saying. This means we have our own
“private world”. However, we should know where to have our limits set. We should not text when we are
at family gatherings. Rather than being at the dinner table texting we should start a conversation and make
it interesting. I’m not saying that all teen’s text while at dinner table, but the majority do. I learned that it’s
not right because it’s a moment when one is with the family and texting can wait.
Action
We need to break out of our own little world and step out of the keyboard range. We need to thin k back
when we didn’t give too much of importance to cell phones and when we didn’t get upset because some
one didn’t text us back. This includes the parents as well. The parents have to be aware of when a child is
spending too much time texting. Not encouraging g to look at the messages because it’s our privacy but
rather talking with the teen more often about it. There are some teens that might spend hours of his or her
cell phone rather than being outside doing an activity or even homework. Hopefully we teens make more
use of being with friends and actually communicating like years back, rather than just using our cell phones
and texting most of the time. We should use our cell p-hones and text only when we know its appropriate,
like not at school or at church or at the movies. Maybe limit our texting and hang out more with our friends
to keep the expression of language.

Australian drug trafficker
Schapelle Corby has
returned to Brisbane after
nine years in prison and three
years on parole in Indonesia.
The former beauty therapist
was arrested in 2004 at
Bali airport with 4.2kg of
marijuana hidden in surfing

Her case affected foreign
relations between Australia

many Australians, with some
viewing her sentence as too

She proclaimed innocence
throughout.
Hundreds of police officers
were deployed to assist
with Corby's departure. Her
sister Mercedes, who lives in
Indonesia, shielded her from
journalists' cameras as they
walked to a car.
She was taken in a convoy
from her Bali villa to the
airport, to catch a flight to
Brisbane.
Upon her landing, at
about 05:00 on Sunday local
time (19:00 Saturday GMT),
she and her sister were
reportedly ushered to a waiting
convoy of vans.
Corby has also posted a

Two men stabbed to death in US
trying to stop anti-Muslim rant
PORTLAND: A man fatally
stabbed two passengers aboard a
Portland, Oregon, commuter train
after they tried to stop him from
harassing two young women who
appeared to be Muslim, police said
on Saturday.
Police identified the assailant,
who was arrested soon after the
Friday afternoon attack, as Jeremy
Joseph Christian of Portland, a 35-
year-old convicted felon.
A senior researcher with the
Southern Poverty Law Center, in a
blog post, said Christian’s Facebook
page showed he held "some racist
and other extremist beliefs."
The attack unfolded hours before
the start of Ramazan, Islam’s holy
month, when most of the world’s 1.6

MANCHESTER: Britain
police have released CCTV
footage of Manchester
bomber SalmanAbedi on the
night of the attack as thousands
defied the terror threat
to take part in the Great
Manchester Run on Sunday.
Security was tight as
40,000 runners pounded
Manchester’s streets in the
annual half marathon (21.1
km/13.1 miles) a day after
Prime Minister Theresa May
lowered the terror threat
level, which was hiked following
Monday’s carnage.
Investigators gave details
of Abedi’s last hours as they
released photographs from
security cameras showing
the black-clad suicide
bomber wearing jeans and
trainers, a black bodywarmer
and baseball cap, the straps
of his backpack visible on
his shoulders. The 22-yearold,
of Libyan origin, was
born in the northwestern
English city.
The police statement said
one of the last places he went
to was a "city centre flat and
from there he left to make his
way to the Manchester
Arena" where the attack took
place.
"The flat is highly relevant
as a location which we
believe may be the final
assembly place for the
device."
Two unarmed police officers
remained on guard outside
the entrance to Granby
House, believed to contain
the flat in question, according
to a correspondent at the
scene.
"It is surprising because
these people are just under
your nose and you don’t
know it," said Harpreet Lota,
a Manchester resident walking
past the building.
In their latest operations,
police detained two men,
aged 20 and 22, in a raid in
north Manchester early on
Saturday.

For sports, for pageantries, and plays,
Thou hast thy eves and holidays
On which the young men and maids meet
To exercise their dancing feet,
Tripping the comely country-round,
With daffodils and daisies crowned.
Thy wakes, thy quintals, here thou hast,
Thy May-poles, too, with garlands graced,
Thy morris-dance, thy Whitsun-ale,
Thy shearing-feast, which never fail,
Thy harvest home, thy wassail-bowl,
That's tossed up after fox-i'-th'-hole,
Thy mummeries, thy Twelfthtide kings
And queens, thy Christmas revellings,
Thy nut-brown mirth, thy russet wit,
And no man pays too dear for it.
O happy life! if that their good
The husbandmen but understood,
Who all the day themselves do please
And younglings with such sports as these,
And, lying down, have naught t' affright
Sweet sleep, that makes more short the night.

Agreedy mouse saw a basket full of corn. He wanted to eat it. So he made a small
hole in the basket. He squeezed in through the hole. He ate a lot of corn. He felt
full and was very happy.
Now he wanted to come out. He tried to come out through the small hole. He could
not. His belly was full. He tried again. But it was of no use.
The mouse started crying. A rabbit was passing by. It heard the mouse’s cry and
asked, “Why are you crying, my friend?”
The mouse explained, “I made a small hole and came into the basket to eat the corn.
Now I am not able to get out through that hole.”
The rabbit said, “It is because you ate too much. Wait till your belly shrinks.” The
rabbit laughed and went away.
The mouse fell asleep in the basket. The next morning his belly had shrunk. But he
wanted to eat some more corn. He forgot all about getting out of the basket. So he ate
the corn and his belly was really big again.
After eating, the mouse remembered that he had to escape. But obviously, he could
not. So he thought, “Oh! Now I will go out tomorrow.”
The cat was the next passerby. He smelt the mouse in the basket. He lifted its lid and
ate the mouse.

ABOUT THE HORSE
Horses and humans have an ancient relationship. Asian
nomads probably domesticated the first horses some 4,000
years ago, and the animals remained essential to many human
societies until the advent of the engine. Horses still hold a place
of honor in many cultures, often linked to heroic exploits in war.
Wild and Domesticated
There is only one species of domestic horse, but around 400
different breeds that specialize in everything from pulling wagons
to racing. All horses are grazers.
While most horses are domestic, others remain wild. Feral
horses are the descendents of once-tame animals that have run
free for generations. Groups of such horses can be found in
many places around the world. Free-roaming North American
mustangs, for example, are the descendents of horses brought
by Europeans more than 400 years ago.
Wild horses generally gather in groups of 3 to 20 animals. A
stallion (mature male) leads the group, which consists of mares
(females) and young foals. When young males become colts, at
around two years of age, the stallion drives them away. The colts
then roam with other young males until they can gather their
own band of females.
The Przewalski's horse is the only truly wild horse whose
ancestors were never domesticated. Ironically, this stocky, sturdy
animal exists today only in captivity. The last wild
Przewalski's horse was seen in Mongolia in 1968.

Champions Trophy: Junaid Khan
looking Kohli wicket in upcoming clash
KARACHI:
LONDON: Pakistan
fast bowler Junaid Khan
has expressed confidence
in his ability to restrict
India captain Virat Kohli
in the upcoming
Champions Trophy citing
his previous record against
the batsman. Khan has dismissed
Kohli three times
in their four previous
meetings and off the 22
balls that he has bowled to
the right hander, he has
conceded just 2 runs.
“I have dismissed him
in three out of the four
matches we have faced
each other. He is a brilliant
batsman but he has failed
against me,” Indian media
quoted Khan as saying.
India and Pakistan go
face-to-face in their tournament
opener on June 4
in Birmingham, in what
could be an intense affair
given the seasoned rivalry
between the two nations
and the occasion of an ICC
event.
The 27-year-old
Pakistani believes that he
holds a psychological
advantage over the India
captain, and although it
has been four years since
the two squared off on the
field, Kohli would feel the
pressure of the past record.
“When I face him, I will
consider him the same
Kohli. I may be wrong but
I think he will also think of
me as the same Junaid that
has taken his wicket
before, which might make
him go on the defensive a
bit more and therefore lose
his wicket,” said Khan.
The ICC Champions
Trophy 2017 would be an
eight-team tournament,
and it is being organized at
Ramiz urges Sarfraz to be ‘flexible’
KARACHI: New captain Sarfraz Ahmed
will face his stiffest test yet when he leads
unfancied Pakistan in the Champion’s
Trophy — starting with a highly-charged
clash against India.
After qualifying by the skin of their teeth,
Pakistan will need to overcome serious batting
deficiencies to be competitive following
their struggles in the one-day format in
recent years. Pakistan’s tournament in
England starts with the toughest of games
against arch-rivals India, the defending
champions, in Birmingham on June 4.
The wicketkeeper-batsman is credited
with injecting new energy after winning
three of his first four games, two against the
West Indies and one against lowly
Zimbabwe. But former captain Ramiz Raja
believes the team lacks the skill-set needed to
regularly beat top sides in modern limitedovers
cricket, which tilts heavily towards batting.
“They say a captain is as good as his
team and this side lacks power-hitting skills,”
Raja toldAFP. “Also, to win, he needs to find
wickets with the new ball. He has to be in
control of his emotions — he must have a
flexible plan based on discipline to create a
winning environment.”
four-year intervals over the
past three editions. There
have been seven editions
of the league since the first
one in 1998 and India are
the defending champions,
having won the previous
tournament in 2013.
Owing to the constantly
deteriorating diplomatic
relations India-Pakistan
cricket encounters have
been limited to ICC tournaments
and Asia Cups,
especially since the
Mumbai terrors attacks of
2008. However, Pakistan
did visit India for a short
limited-overs series in
2012-13.
Khan feels that the
experience of playing
county cricket in England
that he possesses would
hold him in good stead. “I
know how these wickets
behave in this weather, so I
know what kind of deliveries
to bowl and how to
bowl them.”
Having full faith in his
captain, Sarfraz Ahmed,
Khan went on to say, “I
have played two ODI
matches under his captaincy
against the West Indies
and we won both matches,
with me claiming three
wickets.
“He is a good leader
and encourages the
bowlers to bowl the way
they want to, while also
giving his own input.”

don’t play us, says Sethi
Clashes
between Pakistan and India
are the most watched games
in cricket by a margin but
political tension between the
two neighbouring countries
has meant matches between
the two come few and far
between.
The lack of bilateral
series between the two
countries not only frustrates
cricketing fans of the two
countries but also the millions
of neutrals who are
missing out on a spectacle
filled with passion, talent
and pressure.
While both boards have
expressed eagerness to play
against each other, the
Board of Control for Cricket
in India (BCCI) keep insisting
they are yet to receive
the go-ahead from their
government.
The Pakistan Cricket
Board (PCB), however, is
running out of patience and
feels the BCCI is going back
on an MoU signed by the
two boards that stated
Pakistan will host India in a
bilateral series next.
And PCB Executive
Committee head Najam
Sethi insists that the MoU,
contrary to popular opinon,
is legally binding. “We have
discussed this with some of
the leading legal minds
around, both in Pakistan and
abroad, and all of them
agree we are in a position to
take legal action against the
BCCI if they do not play us
in a series hosted by us,”
said Sethi.
However, the board will
not be taking legal action
immediately. “We have had
two meetings with the
BCCI. We will have a third
meeting in which the
International Cricket
Council (ICC) will be
involved,” he said.
