The Sindh government has decided to form a Sindh cricket team to participate in the Pakistan Cup, under which trials will be conducted at the divisional level on the basis of merit.
In a video statement, Sindh’s Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs, Sardar Muhammad Bakhsh Mahar, said that in the initial stage, young players will send a one?minute video of their batting or bowling via WhatsApp. After that, formal divisional trials will be held for the selected players.
Sardar Muhammad Bakhsh Mahar stated that after continuous efforts by the Sindh government, the PCB has been convinced to provide an effective platform for Sindh’s youth. He emphasized that this is a significant opportunity especially for Sindh.
He informed that the Pakistan Cup is expected at the end of May or the first week of June, with the event organized under the PCB while arrangements will be managed by the Sindh government.
The Sports Minister highlighted that there is immense cricketing talent in the province, but many young players do not get opportunities. Therefore, the Sindh government has provided them with a proper platform to showcase their abilities.
He appealed to the youth to send their one?minute video, along with their name, division, and mobile number, to the Sindh Sports Department’s WhatsApp number (0304-3281152). After reviewing the videos, talented players will be invited for trials.
Sardar Muhammad Bakhsh Mahar further said that the Sindh Sports Department will set up camps in every division for trials so that maximum youth can participate in the process on merit.
He added that despite limited time, the Sindh government has struggled hard to provide this platform, and a strong team will be formed to deliver an outstanding performance in the Pakistan Cup.
