Pakistan Viral Series

Well, that wasn’t the start we were hoping for, was it? Our young guns stumbled right out of the gates at the ICC Under-19 World Cup in Harare, losing to England by 37 runs on Friday. And honestly, it hurts a bit more because we know these boys have it in them. England posted 210 runs in their innings, and Pakistan could only manage 173 in response, getting bowled out with still a few overs to spare. The batting lineup just never really got going, and that’s putting it mildly. Bowlers Did Their Job, Batters Couldn’t Deliver Credit where it’s due our bowling attack did exactly what we asked of them. Ahmed Hussain was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/38, while Abdul Subhan chipped in with 2/24 . They restricted England to what looked like a very chaseable total on paper. Honestly, 210 should’ve been within reach for these lads. The problem? Our batting completely collapsed. Pakistan were staring at a massive defeat at 85 for 6  before skipper Farhan Yousaf decided to take matt...

Honestly, is anyone even surprised anymore? The United States has once again shown us exactly where we stand in their grand scheme of things. The US State Department has announced that starting January 21, they’re suspending immigrant visa processing for Pakistan along with 74 other countries. Yes, you read that correctly  75 countries total. And what’s their reasoning? Apparently, they want to ensure that new immigrants don’t become a drain on American taxpayer resources.  This, after decades of Pakistanis contributing to every sector of American society – from doctors saving lives in hospitals to engineers building tech companies, from small business owners to hardworking taxi drivers. Suddenly, we’re all potential liabilities. The timing couldn’t be more telling. This announcement comes just as the new administration is settling in, and it seems like the old playbook is being dusted off once again. For ordinary Pakistanis who have been waiting in queues for years, dreaming...

What Happened in the Melbourne Renegades vs Sydney Thunder Match? During the 33rd match of the 2025/26 Big Bash League (BBL 15) between Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Thunder, something unusual took place that left Pakistani fans shocked and confused. Mohammad Rizwan, who has been representing the Melbourne Renegades this season, had to retire out during the innings. For those who don’t know, “retire out” is quite rare in cricket. It’s when a batsman voluntarily leaves the field without being dismissed usually for tactical reasons or due to some strategy the team wants to implement. Why Was Rizwan Forced to Retire Out? The decision to retire out wasn’t Rizwan’s personal choice, apparently. Accordin...

A video has been circulating on social media showing a lively moment from a Pakistani shaadi where two women were dancing energetically to “Shararat” a music track from the Indian blockbuster film Dhurandhar. The clip, shared widely on platforms like X and Instagram, was shot inside a wedding hall where guests were clapping, cheering and recording the performance.  Interestingly, Dhurandhar is officially banned in Pakistan, along with several Gulf countries, yet its songs and beats are finding their way into celebrations here mostly through social media and music downloads.  Many Pakistanis genuinely enjoy Bollywood tunes at weddings, mehndi nights and parties. Songs with catchy rhythms and familiar languages often become an easy choice for dance routines, especially in festive settings like these. Some people online pointed out that this isn’t about politics or bans it’s simply music that gets people on their feet.  Of course, opinions are mixed. A few people deba...
