The six HBL Pakistan Super League sides further boosted their squads on Saturday as they picked additional players and submitted partial replacements for the players unavailable for initial few matches in the supplementary and replacement draft held through a virtual session.

The 2020 edition’s champions Karachi Kings, as decided through random draw, had the first supplementary pick, and they added Sahibzada Farhan, winner of the PCB Domestic Cricketer of the Year Award 2021, to their squad.

Lahore Qalandars, who had the second pick in the first round, picked pacer Mohammad Imran Randhawa. In the next four picks; Islamabad United added pacer Musa Khan, who played for them in the 2019, 2020 and 2021 seasons; Quetta Gladiators reserved their pick; Multan Sultans picked England pacer David Willey; and, Peshawar Zalmi picked Mohammad Umar.

The second round followed reverse order in which Peshawar Zalmi, the winners of the second edition of HBL PSL, going first, reserved their pick. Defending champions Multan Sultans picked Rizwan Hussain, 2019 edition’s Quetta Gladiators picked Ghulam Mudassar, two-time champions Islamabad United plucked Zahir Khan, Lahore Qalandars further boasted their pace department with the addition of Akif Javed and Karachi Kings bagged Jordan Thompson.

Each franchise was allowed to pick a maximum of one foreign cricketer out of the two supplementary picks.

Making the most of the opportunity to replace those players who were partially unavailable in the HBL PSL 7, Multan Sultans replaced Odean Smith with wicketkeeper-batter Johnson Charles and Rovman Powell with Dominic Drakes.

Quetta Gladiators replaced Naveen-ul-Haq with Luke Wood, James Vince with Will Smeed, Jason Roy with Shimron Hetmyer, and Afghanistan’s Noor Ahmed with Ali Imran.

Karachi Kings replaced Pakistan U19 captain Qasim Akram, who is on the national duty in the West Indies because of the ICC Men’s U19 Cricket World Cup, with left-arm spinner Mohammad Taha Khan and reserved their pick for Tom Abell.

Qasim’s teammate Zeeshan Zamir was replaced with Mohammad Huraira, who had a terrific debut first-class season stroking a triple-century and finishing as the highest run-getter in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.

The unavailablility of English wicketkeeper-batter Phil Salt for a few initial matches saw Ben Dunk reuniting with Lahore Qalandars.

Peshawar Zalmi and Quetta Gladiators reserved their one supplementary pick each, while all five franchises, except Quetta Gladiators, reserved their picks in the replacement round.

Saturday’s picks:

Islamabad United – In supplementary round: Musa Khan and Zahir Khan (Silver). In replacement round: Mohammad Huraira (Emerging)

The USA v Ireland one day international cricket series scheduled for this week has been cancelled ov

The USA v Ireland one day international cricket series scheduled for this week has been cancelled over Covid-related concerns, USA Cricket said Tuesday.

The federation had already decided to cancel one of the three scheduled matches, but had hoped to play the remaining two on Wednesday and Thursday.

“While all players in both current playing squads have returned negative Covid results overnight, two members of the Irish support staff have tested positive, as well as several partners of players, resulting in two of the Irish players being deemed as ‘close contacts,'” USA Cricket said in a statement.

The latest Covid concerns — following positive tests for an umpire and members of the US squad — “meant that both boards have regrettably agreed to cancel the remaining two scheduled matches.”

The USA and Ireland each won a T20 international in the opening two games of Ireland’s tour.

The Irish touring party are scheduled to leave Florida for Kingston, Jamaica, on Friday for their series against the West Indies. The two support staff members who tested positive will remain in isolation in Florida before they travel.

Pakistani Cricketer Yasir Shah has been named in a case registered at Islamabad's Shalimar police st

Pakistani Cricketer Yasir Shah has been named in a case registered at Islamabad’s Shalimar police station for reportedly aiding in the rape and harassment of a 14-year-old girl.

The FIR was registered on December 19 on the complaint of a woman at Islamabad’s Shalimar police station. The case was registered against Yasir and according to the complainant, the cricketer’s friend, Farhan, under sections 292-B and 292-C (child pornography) as well as 376 (punishment for rape) of the Pakistan Penal Code.

In the FIR, the woman said that Yasir Shah’s friend, Farhan, had raped her niece at gunpoint, filmed her ordeal, and harassed her. The woman further alleged that the Test cricketer Yasir Shah had warned her of dire consequences if she approached the authorities over the incident.

Meanwhile, Islamabad police said that the victim had undergone a medical examination. The investigation will move forward in light of the circumstances and the results of the medical examination, the statement said, adding that the case will be probed on merit.

A senior health expert in Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) on Thursday recommended peop

A senior health expert in Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) on Thursday recommended people to adopt precautionary measures against aggravating seasonal influenza as flue and CoVID-19 could turn in to a more serious twindemic.

“For the past few weeks, cold and dry weather has been persisting in most parts of the country and the capital is also witnessing a sudden surge in number of affected patients of seasonal flue, mostly toddlers and school going children,” said Resident General Paediatrics, PIMS Hospital, Islamabad, Dr. Saima Sikandar.

She also recommended people to get administered influenza vaccine, especially children, as majority of the reported cases of infected with flue were those not inoculated against this seasonal disease.

“The influenza virus wintertime seasonality is 2 to 3 months, between December and February, however due to antigenic drift after every year the number of cases increase” she said. Advising against hospital nebulization kits to the patients having asthmatic condition or difficulty in breathing, she recommended to ensure constant intake of warm fluids, specifically meat soups to keep themselves warm and lungs clear.

The Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) similar to that for Covid -19, she said, must be followed like avoiding direct contact with infected persons and practicing isolation once infected.

She laid great emphasis on the importance of educating children at home and at schools on personal hygiene for instance using a tissue or covering mouth and nose with an elbow when sneezing or coughing, and washing hands frequently.

Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) on Saturday imposed a ‘complete ban’ on direct and indirect

Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) on Saturday imposed a ‘complete ban’ on direct and indirect inbound air travel from seven countries after emergence of ‘Omicron corona variant’ in South Africa and its spread in adjoining regions.

The authority placed the countries, including South Africa, Hong Kong, Mozambique, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini and Botswana, in the Category-C and completely restricted inbound travel from there, according to a letter posted at the PCAA’s official twitter account.

It elaborated that Pakistanis passengers traveling from these countries on ‘extreme emergency’ would only be allowed after ‘obtaining exemptions’ and following health/testing protocols like vaccination certificate, negative PCR report (maximum 72 hours old) before boarding and the RAT (Rapid Antigen Test) on arrival at airport.

The RAT negative cases would undergo a three-day mandatory home quarantine, followed by the re-RAT on 3rd day by respective civil administration. While, the RAT positive cases would be bound to a 10-day quarantine (at government/self-paid facilities) and the PCR test would be conducted on 10th day in quarantine.

However, to facilitate stranded Pakistanis, the authority said, travel from these countries till December 5, 2021 would be allowed ‘without exemption’ but under the prescribed health and testing protocols.

Fears mounted Saturday that a highly-infectious new coronavirus strain was pushing its way into Euro

Fears mounted Saturday that a highly-infectious new coronavirus strain was pushing its way into Europe as the world brought the shutters down to contain the new Omicron variant.

Britain confirmed its first two infections and suspected new cases emerged in Germany and the Czech Republic, while Dutch authorities quarantined 61 passengers from South Africa who tested positive for Covid-19.

South Africa complained it was being “punished” with air travel bans for first detecting the strain, which the World Health Organization (WHO) has termed a “variant of concern”.

South Korea, Australia and Thailand joined the United States, Brazil, Canada and a host of other countries around the world restricting travel from the region, fearing a major setback to global efforts against the pandemic.

Scientists are racing to determine the threat posed by the heavily mutated strain, which is more transmissible than the dominant Delta variant, and whether it can evade existing vaccines.

Anxious travellers thronged Johannesburg international airport, desperate to squeeze onto the last flights to countries that had imposed sudden travel bans. Many had cut holidays and rushed back from South African safaris and vineyards.

“It’s ridiculous, we will always be having new variants,” British tourist David Good told AFP, passports in hand. “South Africa found it but it’s probably all over the world already.”

A new Bollywood movie “Sooryavanshi,” which is drawing big crowds in India, projects the right-wing

A new Bollywood movie “Sooryavanshi,” which is drawing big crowds in India, projects the right-wing Hindu nationalist agenda of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government, with it’s every third frame having a “bloodcurdling Islamophobic image”, according to an opinion piece in The Washington Post.

“It (the film) justifies the abrogation of the special status accorded to Kashmir, where thousands of youth were detained and an Internet blackout was imposed in 2019,” Rana Ayyub, a noted Indian author , wrote in the article: Why an Indian film’s success at the box office should worry us all.

“Like the government, the film argues that the abrogation of Article 370 of the Indian constitution has wiped out terrorism from the valley,” Ms. Ayyub wrote in her article.

“The film stokes the dangerous ‘love jihad’ conspiracy, which paints Muslim men as colluding to seduce or kidnap Hindu women or girls and convert them to Islam, she said, calling the flick ‘dangerous’.

“But other Islamophobic tropes are the center of the film, which has as its male lead one of the biggest stars in India, Akshay Kumar — a big fan of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and an actor famous for his jingoistic, hyper-nationalist films,” the article said.

Ms. Ayyub wrote:

” ‘Sooryavanshi‘ is one of the most successful films in India after the covid-19 lockdowns were eased. Its success contributes to the climate of hate and discrimination that India’s estimated 200 million Muslims must face everyday.

“Every third frame of the film is a bloodcurdling Islamophobic image. While an upper-class Hindu character played by Akshay Kumar gives lessons in patriotism, the Muslim antagonist responds with hate. He is ungrateful, with a long beard and skull cap. Each time the protagonist sermonizes the Indian Muslim to fall in line, the audience in the theater where I saw the film whistled and applauded…

“If the filmmakers had read any news about Kashmir, they could have had a brush with reality. But who wants to talk about reality when the purpose is propaganda?

“Propaganda sells, obviously. News just gets in the way.

“Recently the police in India filed a case against 102 Twitter accounts that include journalists, activists and lawyers who spoke out against the anti-Muslim violence that unfolded in the northeastern state of Tripura in October.

“Hindu nationalists vandalized mosques and attacked Muslim homes, but the Tripura police went after those who spoke against it, accusing them of sedition.

“For weeks in New Delhi, Muslim Friday prayers have been obstructed by Hindu nationalists. The Muslims were finally displaced, and a grand Hindu prayer service was organized in the presence of a leader of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Nov. 5.

“In this context, a film like ‘Sooryavanshi’ is not just entertainment. The film makes a point of repeating attacks carried out by Muslims, ignoring the numerous episodes of violence carried out by Hindu radicals.

“(Akshay) Kumar’s protagonist speaks about the 1993 blasts in Mumbai but conveniently ignores the 1992 anti-Muslim carnage that preceded it. He conveniently ignores the 2002 riots of Gujarat, the Malegaon blasts of 2006 that killed Muslims after Friday prayers and the Malegaon blasts of 2008, where retired officers in the Indian army were implicated.

“In India, Muslim seminaries and organizations are being hounded by the Modi government for allegedly spreading terror in the country using foreign money.

“In the film, a Muslim scholar and priest who runs an organization is seen as the mastermind of a terrorist nexus that receives funding from Pakistan. The filmmakers should have at least given writing credits to Modi and his allies.

“Disappointingly, the film is produced by Karan Johar, a well-respected director who made a film called ‘My Name Is Khan.’ That movie addressed the demonization of Muslims post-9/11. But that was before Modi. Johar’s new worldview is celebrated by the government; he recently received one of country’s highest civilian honours in the presence of the prime minister and his powerful minister of home affairs, Amit Shah.

“‘Sooryavanshi’ is dangerous. After watching it, it’s impossible not to think of Nazi Germany, where Hitler cultivated a film industry that paid obeisance to him and made propaganda films against Jews.

“In a sane world, India’s film industry — and actors, directors and producers from all over the world — would denounce it for its criminal and brazen Islamophobia. But maybe I’m asking too much.

“If Bollywood continues this aggressive descent into nationalism and hate, it will have blood on its hands. No box office record will be able to change that.
