[PICTURES] The National One-Day Cup : PIA players made to push start their own team bus

[MenInG]

Well - the term Breaking News got a news of life with the news that PIA players participating in today's National OD games had to push start their own bus....

I really don't know if I want to cry or laugh but

1. No announcements about team compositions for this trophy
2. No coverage at all during the day by the PCB

The only news we get is this. Pathetic!

What a laughing stock. Pathetic.

The whole 'coverage' of the tournament is ridiculous. No live scorecards, no pictures and no information about squads.

 

[MenInG]

Translations are:

1. PIA players given a broken down bus for transport
2. PIA players push start their bus
3. PIA buses, like their planes, are broken

not on TV. and named national one day cup

Thats really a no biggie. Probably some battery issue thus giving a push.

Nothing wrong in that and stupid stuff from media to make it breaking news

Sorry no money for new bus, I spent it all on my travel and medical operations - Sharyar Khan

No biggie in isolation. Add it to everything else and it paints a very decisive picture of the joke that Pakistan domestic cricket is.

I'm pretty sure that these busses are not PIA's own busses, but are owned by a Private contractor.

Usually the hotel where the guys are staying get transport from them.
