Since the formation of Pakistan, the country won only 3 ICC awards while in the last two days, Pakistan has already taken 4 of the trophies which depict our domination in the world cricketing arena.
Despite all the pressures and security scenarios with no team ready to tour Pakistan and the humiliation we faced after New Zealand withdrew their team moments before the match was to be played last year, this distinction will make the world realize what they are missing while not coming and playing against us.
Because of the sheer determination and the consistency, Babar Azam won ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer Of The Year, Mohammad Rizwan won ICC Men’s T20I Cricketer Of The Year, Shaheen Afridi ICC Men’s Cricketer Of The Year 2021.
Not just our boys but the rising female cricketer Fatima Sana also grabbed an ICC Emerging Women’s Cricketer Of The Year Award which will not just be a motivation for her but will inspire the future generation as well.
It’s a proud moment for all of us but we must not only cherish their victories but should stand with them in their defeats as well as they are one big source of entertainment for all of us.
