Pakistan’s humiliating defeat to India in the Asia Cup has gone far beyond the scoreboard. Former captain and World Cup winner Imran Khan has openly ridiculed the team, taking aim at PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi and blasting the culture of excuses. Wasim Akram has also expressed his disbelief at the decline of Pakistan cricket. While the PCB points fingers at handshakes, umpiring calls, and external factors, the truth is simple – Pakistan are losing because they have forgotten how to play with heart, discipline, and purpose. Once a powerhouse of raw talent and fearless cricket, Pakistan is now reduced to theatrics and empty noise. Will they reflect and rebuild, or continue to be embarrassed on the global stage? Rupha Ramani with more.
Also on the show, Pakistan's celebration backfired again. This time it was the football field. Pakistan's U-17 team faced India in the Junior SAFF Cup. Pakistan celebrated their goal with the infamous "tea sipping" gesture. The move haunted Pakistan as they lost the match 3-2. Who are the youngsters learning from? Is cricket setting the wrong example for youngsters in the country? And Botswana scripted history by becoming the first African nation to win a gold medal in the 4X400m relay World Championship. The country has announced a public holiday to celebrate the achievement. The story isn't just about their massive achievement but also about a nation inspiring the entire continent.
