I have been watching Cricket since the early 90s and if my memory serves right then I have never seen or heard about any Test / Odi / T20 being held in the Largest Province of the country . What could be the reason behind not going to Balochistan and play in front of their crowds ? Am sure the support would have been / would be good enough even if not massive .
Another place where not much International Cricket is alloted is Peshawar where I think the Last Odi played was during the 2006 Odi series against India , where the crowd was just fantastic and no cricket has been held their ever since or much historically in the past .
I just hope that when Cricket returns to Pakistan , the PCB makes an effort to spread the hosting of matches to non-traditional venues , especially for T20s / Odis while Tests can continue to be held in traditional venues like Karachi / Lahore .
Pakistan doesnt begin with Karachi and end with Lahore/Pindi/Fsd so this monopoly of these venues needs to be broken as people in other parts of Pakistan deserve to watch their team play in front of them .
One good news though is the construction of International class stadium in Islamabad so I just hope to see same steps being taken in other parts as well .
