‘Champions Trophy’ cancelled
As expected the champions trophy that was to be held in Pakistan has been cancelled. The ICC says its only postponed until October 2009 but we all know it ain’t gonna happen no more. Not in Pakistan anyway. South Africa was the first team to pull out. Australia, New Zealand, England and even West Indies (didn’t expect these guys) were going to boycott next. So the ICC ‘postponed’ it. Although it was a pretty useless tournament but Pakistan needed it. Anyway, with the current situation which is going to stay ‘current’ for a long time due to the ‘war of terror’ I guess its going to be a long long time before Pakistan actually play any useful cricket. I was really looking forward to Shoaib Akhtar’s ‘comeback’ but I guess thats not gonna happen now. Rest in peace Pakistan cricket…
