salute to a champion

just minutes ago, Pakistan won the golden jubilee BCCI cup against India successfully chasing 292 runs in kolkata…and as much as my hypertension makes such close encounters very painful to watch, now that it is over, I just have to express my deepest appreciation for Inzimamul Haq not only because of his demeanor as a cricketer but the way he epitomizes the Pakistani spirit…of an underdog…a person who lacks flamboyance hailing from a small city of multan..

…but given half the chance, he uncoils and unfurls into a magical player on the field….always humble always thankful always winning our hearts with genuine goodness of spirit….and my lord…what immense talent…despite being called names due to his size or made fun of.... due to his unusually high run-out average…inzimam stands tall….inzimam wins hands down on the yardstick of true genius
