Pakistan Crush Zimbabwe, Take 3-0 Lead in ODI Series

Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed hailed “a great performance” after his team sealed a series win by strolling to a nine-wicket victory over Zimbabwe in the third one-day international on Wednesday.

Seamer Faheem Ashraf was the pick of a bristling Pakistani attack, taking a career best five for 22 as the hosts were skittled for just 67.

Opener Fakhar Zaman then continued his good run of form to see Pakistan home in the 10th over with an unbeaten 43.

“First of all, a great performance,” said Ahmed. “Ashraf is getting better day by day. He’s an allrounder, and we need him.”

Once again Zimbabwe won the toss and opted to bat first, but their slide began as early as the second over.

Prince Masvaure, on his debut, was caught out by a lifter from Usman Khan and Zimbabwe were under immediate pressure at 1 for 1.

The hosts were wobbling at 26 for 3 when Ashraf came on as first change in the 10th over, and he quickly had Peter Moor brilliantly caught in the slips by Babar Azam before trapping Chamu Chibhabha leg before wicket with a skidding full delivery.

He then had Elton Chigumbura caught behind and bowled Ryan Murray as Zimbabwe slipped to a perilous 54 for 8.

– Clean bowled –

Tailenders Wellington Masakadza and Blessing Muzarabani clung on for seven overs, but leg-spinner Shadab Khan eventually removed Muzarabani with a googly and Ashraf then returned to end the innings with a pinpoint yorker.

That delivery clean bowled number 11 Richard Ngarava, giving Ashraf his maiden international five-wicket haul.

Zimbabwe’s 67 was their lowest ever total against Pakistan, and the lowest score ever recorded in 78 ODIs at Queens Sports Club.

“I try to bowl in good areas and a stump to stump line,” said Ashraf.

“Our bowling coach [Azhar Mahmood] puts in a lot of effort. He’s really helped us to get better, and a lot of credit for my first five-for in international cricket goes to him.”

In response, Pakistan lost Imam ul Haq to the first ball of the chase, gloving a quick bouncer from Muzarabani through to wicketkeeper Ryan Murray.

Zaman was also struck on the grille of his helmet by a short one from Ngarava, but he quickly recovered his composure and ended the match in a flurry of boundaries.

He struck seven fours in the space of 10 deliveries to seal the match and give Pakistan an unassailable 3-0 lead in the series.

“A bit of a disaster really,” said Zimbabwe captain Hamilton Masakadza.

“Today we’ve gone quite a long way backward, but these things happen in cricket. As a batting group, we have a lot of hard questions to ask ourselves,” he said.

“The main thing is to stay positive because once you go in that direction and get down on yourself it’s very hard to come back.”

The teams will play two further matches, on Friday and Sunday, at the same ground.

Pakistani Rupee Becomes Second Worst Performing Currency

The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) has now become the second-worst performing currency in the world. The value of the Dollar against PKR increased by 6.45 causing more trouble for the government.

The State Bank of Pakistan has signaled external risks as according to Profit, rising estimates for the fiscal deficit from 6.8 percent to 5.5 percent, current account deficit for 11 months reaching $16 billion, imports pressurizing forex reserves and the changing inflationary landscape in the wake of rising global oil prices.

In the last 6 months, South Asian economies have all depreciated against the US Dollar. PKR has fallen by 15.26 percent. Other factors including the lack of trade, investment in the country, and other factors have contributed.

Finance Minister Dr Shamshad Akhtar has suggested an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout might be the only way out for the upcoming government to tackle the situation at hand.

According to expert analysts, the automotive industry and cement industry will face a negative impact. As the value of the Rupee continues to fall, parts and materials are getting more expensive, thus the rise in their commercial prices.

To appease the IMF authorities, analysts further estimate that the Rupee would further be devalued to Rs130 by the end of this year.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf Breaks Silence Over Animal Cruelty Act

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf Breaks Silence Over Animal Cruelty Act

As elections are just around the corner, political parties have now entered the last phase of preparations. However, social media turned furious when the story of a baby donkey who was beaten and tortured to near death by political party supporters came forth.

All fury broke loose as activists and the general public raised their voice about using animal abuse as a campaign objective. No one wants a leader whose people can stoop so low that they can even kill.

After the story of the donkey came forth, another donkey, who was also tortured and had his head bashed opened was discovered. Though it is unsure if the motive behind it was the same, animals with banners and brochures being glue on them have been popping up all over.

Elections 2018: Donkey Tortured to Near Death by Political Supporters!

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, one of the popular political parties lead by Imran Khan has taken it to Twitter to condemn the act of cruelty against animals.

“Whether it is supporters who beat up a donkey or Imran Khan opponents who did the same to a dog…. this reveals a vile degeneration in our basic mindset of humanity. This kind of cruelty has to stop across the board.”

Whether it be a dog, donkey, horse, or any animal at all, abuse is wrong! Hurting an innocent animal for personal gain is sick. This practice needs to be avoided at all costs.

If you see someone who is abusing an animal, stop them and report it.

This elections, choose a leader, not a butcher!

And people are not happy – especially Pakistani music fans!

Apparently the makers of the movie have used this legendary qawali without giving any special mention or credits to Nusrat.

But that’s not all they are irked about!

The 2018 Bollywood version of ‘Halka Halka Suroor’ has not managed to live up to the expectations of the eager fans. Nor were they expecting the sub-par beats to this otherwise, popular qawali of the singing maestro.

People cannot stop bashing T-Series for openly stealing the song and ruining it for all Nusrat fans out there!

Venting their frustration with the makers on social media, here’s what they had to say:

On the other hand, fans of Aishwarya Rai cannot stop gushing over the song or the gorgeous actress.
