We Rule the World….Again
By fzuberi • Jun 22nd, 2009 • Category: Politics • 11 CommentsIn 1992; my people, my fellow countrymen saw a change a change that made them proud, a change that made them feel on top of the world. Newspapers carried headlines declaring, “WE RULE THE WORLD”, and we did !
Today, the World saw this again…We saw that change again…in the hearts of every Pakistani every cricket lover that every Pakistani is…
We feel revived again…we feel as if we’ve been born again…
We feel Ecstatic & more…
The whole team and most of all Shahid Khan Afridi…reflecting the spirit that the nation of Pakistan is…unpredictability…
The nations that are joined as one nation…we keep fighting each other but every once now and then something happens…just changes the monotony of our lives…& something unpredictable happens…
To an outsider…to someone who does not know this peculiar country…it may be hard to fathom…things that I am expressing…but someone familiar to the dynamics of this nation of nations…would understand the feelings that are going through…any Pakistani’s heart…
The people who spell…despair…depression & hoplessness…should embrace this day…as a day to start spelling just the opposite…
As this Nation…is VERY definitely A NATION…this is what Our enemies are always afraid of…this tremendous potential…that is instilled in us … just naturally…
The emotions that run wild…in any Pakistani in general…is what makes us so potentially… dangerous…
So today I say it again ” WE RULE THE WORLD ”
the words that we were dying to read, hear & SAY… AGAIN!
And (INSHALLAH) We shall see that this turn of events turn our days for the better…
(And as my Beloved Principal Mrs. Deena Mistri used to say every Sunday morning in the School Assembly…)
May this come to be….as we pray…
-Amen
Pray for the Better days to come
-peace

How Gambhir came to Afridi’s rescue
Lord’s: Ajantha Mendis didn’t take a wicket and Shahid Afridi never hit him for a boundary but the “demystifying” of the Sri Lankan spinner told greatly on his team’s defeat in the finals of the ICC World Twenty20 here on Sunday.
Sri Lankan skipper Kumar Sangakkara conceded that Pakistan had played his “mystery spinner” too often in recent times and it had played into his opposition’s hands. What he didn’t know was that an Indian had also contributed hugely in Pakistan’s quest to tackle Mendis.
Indian opener Gautam Gambhir and Shahid Afridi were lodged in the same hotel with their teams in central London in the second week of the competition when they caught up with each other over a dinner. Afridi had then inquired Gambhir, arguably one who has played Mendis best so far, on how to come to terms with the Sri Lankan spinner.
Afridi’s questions were specific: how to spot when Mendis was bowling a googly or varying the degree of spin or when he was in “carom ball” delivery mode. Gambhir patiently shared all his knowledge with Afridi which must be kind of a news in itself as the world believed their was no love lost between the two cricketers. Afridi and Gambhir were involved in an ugly confrontation during a match of the 2006-07 series and the latter was even hauled up in front of the match-referee.
Well clearly much water has passed under the bridge since then and Gambhir was more than keen to help out Afridi. The mercurial Pakistani at that stage must not have known if his side would end up facing Sri Lanka again in the tournament. But his eagerness was just a reflection on how desperate Afridi was to succeed.
Gambhir’s mantra was no different to what he has maintained all along. “I think it is important to pick him from his fingers because most of the variations which he does, he does from his fingers and it is important to pick him then.”
On June 12, exactly nine days before the finals, Sri Lanka and Pakistan had faced each other in a Super Eight match at Lord’s only. Afridi had then got out for nought, a victim of Muthiah Muralidharan’s mastery. Pakistan had then lost by 19 runs.
Today it was Afridi’s turn to get his even. He hit a half century and Pakistan won by eight wickets. In a strange way, there was enough for the newly crowned winners to thank an Indian.
it is heard that india’s pathetic team after this smashing wwin of pakisrtan……….. has given up all hopes to play cricket onward………therefore many resigned and more absconded at no mens place……………………….aaooooooooooooooo pathetic indians tem of RAW
