Arshad Nadeem deserves hosannas for winning a gold medal in Paris Olympics His superb performance was like a whiff of fresh air in the sports of the country. Gone are the days when we were number one in hockey and squash in the world and we were second to none in every international tournament of these two games.
There is no denying the fact that squash has not seen the likes of Hasham Khan till this day nor the world of hockey has seen any player playing in left half position who could hold candle to Habib Ali Kiddie.
Our cricket team too was ranked among the first four cricket teams of the world up till a couple of years back before politics afflicted its selection too.
