Then came"Bum pharoo khan Afridi mohmand " aur bum phaar phaar kay Pakistan kaa kabara ker Diya.

This was the time when other nations played Pakistan to learn the game and it was a matter of honor to them to have played Pakistan on the international scene.

Sadly Achilles had a Heel and Pakistan couldn't compete with the technological developments in the game with the introduction of astro turf.

The local hockey scene in Pakistan still produces gladiators of a different kind in the game.

The issue is not the bomb, but how pakistan has declined in all aspects of sports (soft power). Pakistan used to make headlines when it came to cricket, hockey, squash even snooker. It gave people a lot of material to think positively about, presently its only doom and gloom, failing economy, pakistan's strategic conditions etc

it is time that pakistan should really up its ''game''. There should be efforts to make an international football team, the entire indian subcontinent was known for its wrestling (great gamma etc)

victories over these soft power tools will highlight pakistan positively.
