We cannot continue to allow wealthy countries to externalise the damage of their pollution spree.

I went to Lords to watch our match against Pakistan, hoping that we could repeat our win of 1999 (that too as an ICC Associate Member) in our very first World Cup after failing to qualify in the previous five. Legendary names adorned the Pakistan Team 20 years ago in Northampton – Saeed Anwar, Shaheed Afridi, Ijaj Ahmed, Inzamanul Huq, Moin Khan, Wasim Akram, Waqar Yunus, Shoaib Akhter, Saqlain Mushtaq and against all odds we won. ICC Full Membership and Test status was secured the following year.
