Unabated Decline of Sports Condition in Pakistan.

Pakistan is a country where sports play a vital part in the culture. Cricket happens to be the most popular sport among Pakistani people although the national game of the country is Hockey.Traditional sports have their own impact in the sport condition. For example, Khabaddi, a sport that is loved being played and is loved being watched by the people of the rural areas and is a point of interest in the international game plays. All sports in Pakistan went to their peak but as for today the current situation happens to be one of concern. We have played in the Olympic Games, Asian Games, World Games, and Commonwealth Games as well. We have seen the squash legend Jahangir Khan, Our Cricket team under the captaincy of Imran Khan and Our hockey team brought identity to Pakistan in International sports forum.
The last 2 decades however is marked as a dark era for Pakistan Sports. Although we won few of the tournaments like T20 cricket world cup and the Champion trophy but all these success had long gaps in between. The performance in all the sports have been inconsistent.
With all these perks which we had, the problems was that we made all our efforts in sports go down the drain because we lack planning in our sports, the irregularity from the government in the support we need and the failure of the infrastructure and funding.

Sports condition in Pakistan should have been taken care of. Pakistan used to produce the best sportsmen in sports and now we as a country are not able to keep pace with the rest of the world. We have clearly stopped producing the best we could, or even the best we can. We were in the every field of sportsgetting one way forward and with all the success and fame our country was growing in reputation but success was taken for granted and wasted bit by bit.
The current bad situation explains a lot about what is the future of the sports we play. But having said that, Pakistan and the people of Pakistan never fail to surprise the world, although the situation is bad we never tend to give up. If we cannot be hosted in any country we are the one to host other countries irrespective of the security condition in Pakistan we give the host teams all they want and accommodated them to the fullest to buck up our reputation in the world of sports.
Cricket played in Pakistan, is the one sport that is improving the condition of Pakistan in International forum. We host the cricket team matches in the Gaddaffi stadium Lahore with the entire protocols one can give. We give all the security to the team and the people who come to see the sport being played. We as a country give all we have to the sports and will keep on giving it till the end. Recently with the start of PSL, we have played with international players and have conducted the matches in Lahore and Karachi too. We have shown the world that we will try to uplift our sports condition.
Sports condition in Pakistan cannot clearly be defined as good or bad due to the fluctuations in the economy, security, environmental condition of the country and many more factors. But one thing is for sure the sportsmen spirit of the people of Pakistan will not let the country be deprived of Sports.
