Pakistan Avengers

Pakistan's Avengers

Zimbabwe is about to cancel their tour to Pakistan, long awaited, prematurely celebrated, a rare glimpse of sun through the very long winters and Osman Samiuddin's An immense, nervy occasion is about to be taken from Pakistan. All we are going to be left with is desperation and feeling of a left alone unwanted son of a noble family. Enemies have taken a lot from us and they still are taking, so much so that killing people of the community that didn't give anything to Pakistan other than their devotion, love and finances.

Generation born before 2000's cricket is their first love for the most of them. Something they can't do anything about. It is not new either; this excoriating pain is hurting since 2009. We are constantly losing on this front to the enemy which we seem to unable to curb. It is like something invading your planet that you can't do much about. Taking the very thing you love from you with no remorse.

A dialogue from 2012 Avengers keep coming in my mind “You’re missing the point! There's no throne, there is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's too much for us but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it!" then I feel there is certain group who are fighting to give us back what we love and they are our Avengers. They are our heroes. The group of people we look at when we feel despair at its worst.

Misbah-ul- Haq is like Captain America, soldier from old time, not accustomed to the newer warfare but still wins. Well because even if he is not loved they all know who will tell them what to do when war is upon them. He hold back, then he hits, then again he holds back and again return to hit. His calculated hits and blocks frustrate his enemies and his calls to his troops make him win the fight.

Bruce Banner is ordinary man with reading glasses and knowledge and all, had he not the problem of being Hulk, he would have been teaching in a University and eventually dies on a hospital bed with few kids and grandkids around. Had Afridi not the problem of being Afridi, he would have ended his career in first class circle of Pakistan with mediocre record as leg spinner. But off course he is Afridi, when he is Bruce Banner he will get out on duck and give 60 odd runs in his bowling spell. Being otherwise, he will smash everything on the way. Harder they will come at him stronger he will get. 

Iron Man has Jarvis, Saeed Ajmal has dosra. You will be deceived  by an ordinary man with suit of armor and a Saeed Ajmal an off spinner. He gets around them, he encircles them, then he puts them in their misery and then he smiles and crack a joke about it. He gets his enemies for fun. He has so many weapons that you wonder if this is technology or magic.

Looks and muscles, fury filled eyes, a hammer in his hands, a man they didn't expected to be so forceful, so serious that they get the real feel of a battle. You think he is Thor. Ask Watson, he is Wahab Riaz. He was not hero of your first choice. He is there accidentally. For whatever reason he is there, he is pelting his hammers at them and then he is mimicking them because he is menacing.

Hafeez didn't have a special thing about him. He was just your sidekick to your M16, but then he developed on skills he had. He perfected those. Hawkeye did that with his arrow and bow. Hafeez did that with his bat and bowl. When he does what he does best, he looks extremely charming. He thinks sharp, so sharp that they may call him professor, he assesses his enemies, he holds his fire and then hit where it matters.
