Javed Miandad is relishing his second special stint with Pakistan. After much controversy surrounding his Director General post, not only has Miandad got his job back but now is in charge of deciding where China’s cricket should go!
Miandad has accepted the role of being an advisor to China in cricket matters and while he is excited by the prospect, he also believes that China will be a team to reckon with in a few years’ time.
It is rather generous of Pakistan to offer advice and facilities for China to further their cricketing interests, but it appears rather ironical that in a country when cricket has been run like sham and failed to provide adequate security to the Sri Lankan cricket team in the face of a terror attack in Lahore should be assisting another upcoming nation in the sport that is a passion with the locals.
Perhaps it is time to turn inwards and approach local cricket matters with the same gusto because as far as ICC President David Morgan is concerned, Pakistan is not going to be isolated but it will be a while before teams develop confidence again to tour the troubled nation.
