There have been numerous reports about Pakistan starting their own version of a major Twenty20 tournament. Pakistan, at large, is a cricket-loving country and has been deprived of seeing not only International stars but National too. Players like Shahid Afridi and Saeed Ajmal are world-class performers. They would enlighten any tournament with their presence. 

The name that is doing the rounds is the 'Pakistan Premier League' (I will call it PPL as it has no name as of yet). The PPL has many pluses to it. Such a league comes with an enormous reputation and is followed worldwide. Here are some of the positives and negatives that the PPL would/might bring to Pakistan and its cricket in large. 

Finance: The financial implications of such a tournament are absolutely monumental. Players in the recent Faysal Bank T20 were paid the equivalent of £20-£25 per match. A top player in the PPL might come close to the £1million mark. The financial security is not just for the players and officials but for the general public too. Merchandise selling, food and drink, and hotels are some of the business opportunities that will arise from the PPL. 

Poor administration: If there are poorly made decisions then this can be detrimental to Pakistan. The financial implications are a massive incentive but Pakistan cricket’s big need at this moment is exposure to games getting played within Pakistan. 

Since the BPL what has followed is a complete shambles. Appealing the Asia Cup final result was a laughable act, if that was not enough to tell the PCB that they will not now tour was the next step. When Zaka stepped his foot down about the election vote, Kamal changed his mind yet again. 

You announced that you will tour Pakistan but now for only one ODI and one T20. Pakistan like usual was very happy that a 'Brother' has stepped forward to help. How wrong they were with a court ruling delaying the tour by at least 4 weeks. This followed by you telling the Pakistani's the tour was off.

The way you have treated Pakistan is like they are mugs. A more dignified yes or no would have been more appropriate. Having a man in-charge that changes his colour more than an Chameleon does, definitely doesn't help.

The Pakistan players are still owed between 25-75% of the fees that were agreed with the BPL. India have never given you the opportunity to tour them, let alone help out by sending players in the BPL; but again Pakistan are the culprits. 

Imran introduced a left armer in 1984, his name was Wasim Akram. Wasim is regarded by most as the best left handed Fast bowler in history. Wasim had magic in his left arm. He literally made the ball talk at will. The out-swinger, the in-swinger, yorker,  bouncer he had it all both from over or around the wicket. Wasim was the dream bowler for any captain to have, a man that can win a game from the jaws of defeat, and who turned out to be one half of the greatest opening bowling partnership I have ever seen. 

Waqar Younis was the other one in this dream act. Waqar was express pace. Quicker than Wasim, and the man that possessed a yorker that only Joel Garner could ever get near. Waqar tore many batsman apart, quite literally. Waqar was a prime example of why fast bowlers can be made but are a natural breed. You just can't coach natural pace, skill and aggression into a person. 

KheloPakistan.com has the upmost pleasure of bringing to you a conversation with Mr Pakistan. Many of you may know Mr Pakistan, but those that don’t; Mr Pakistan follows Pakistan cricket around the World. Apart from being a dedicated follower of the Pakistan cricket team; he takes part in charity work for causes like Shaukat Khanum Cancer Research. He is also working with KheloPakistan.com as a motivator and Ambassador.  Here is what happened when I had a breif talk with him.

Pakistan cricket captain Misbah-ul-Haq has held a meeting with the national team's  coach Dav Whatmore to plan for future training camps and introduction of new players.

KheloPakistan are proud to present an exclusive conversation with Shaan Masood. Shaan, is a Pakistan A player who has represented Pakistan at Under 15 and Under 19 level. Here he talks to us about his career thus far and his hopes for the future.

In my 25 years of following Pakistan I have seen it all; or so I thought. Apart from the action on the field, everything that can happen off it has happened but yesterday the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) stooped to the lowest if the lows by appealing the decision of the Final of the Asia Cup, to the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), citing a incident where they claimed all-rounder Mahmudullah Riyad was deliberately blocked from taking a second run by Pakistan Fast bowler Aizaz Cheema.

Before the game, and after I have never seen Pakistani fans actually supporting the opposition in a game. Dhaka on the 22nd March 2012 was a case in reason. Many Pakistani fans felt that a win for Bangladesh would be great for cricket. Even myself,for my sins, had openly stated that I wouldn't mind losing the game but as always wanted Pakistan to win.

Imran can be followed on Twitter.

Being a Britsh born Pakistani, and  in the East End of London; means multi-culturalism. People of all origins live here, there is a mixture of asians, blacks and whites amongst us. Yes, race hate does exist here, like any place but not as much as mutual respect and understanding of peoples traditions and culture does. 

According to a Sunday paper in the United Kingdom, the International Cricket Council has started a investigation into allegations of corruption in cricket around the world. It claimed it has evidence which was passed onto the ICC, who were seeing if it is conclusive enough to convict players. 

The Sunday Times investigator, Mazhar Mehmood, alleged to have spoken to a Indian bookmaker who made some startling revelations. There were apparant claims that English County, Bangladesh Premier League and the Indian Premier League were all targets of fixers as they sought to make money out of match fixing.
