Cricket in Pakistan is all but dead
That is not true.
It is very popular.
Just have to go look around in sehri time...every ground heck on every road there is a match going on !
Cricket in Pakistan is going nowhere !
whole purpose of which is to print as much money as possible.
Agree with his part
It has been treated as a profit making entity but so has every other sport
Just look at the EPL where local English talent is compromised just to get the best available foreign players to make it the most watched league
The NFL in the U.S that whole game with cheerleaders and just big fat dudes clashing into each other is designed for making profits
Justice Qayum's verdict is there in which he had held several officials and players responsible for corruption and the same are still there rather than kicked out as per commission's recommendations. Just like WWF matches, Cricket matches in general have transformed into noor kushti
You do know what sort of reputation Justice Qayuum himself enjoys !
As for fixing yes there was a problem particularly in the 90's with our so-called superstars.
But that is what is different about this Pakistan team over the last 5 years.
Players like Azhar Ali and Asad Shafique who might not be as talented as we previously had but giving their best.
And again fixing is not limited to cricket....there have been reported cases of fixing in football, rugby and even in tennis.
Infact the FIFA scandal implicated the people running that sport for corruption !
The Pakistan team is really not that good that every time it loses it would be due to fixing.
