Is PSL safe to continue In Pandemic?

 Pakistan Super League (PSL) is recognized as Pakistan's Biggest Cricket Event sponsored by HBL. Uniting some of the most incredible talents around the world in one place, it has became an annual extravaganza for the fans of cricket. Recently, PSL 6 was canceled due to Covid-19 Pandemic, as the cases rose among the players of the respective teams. Many of the players were tested positive for covid-19 and were placed in quarantine until further notice. Like I said, a dark cloud had risen over PSL in the form of covid-19 pandemic, leaving the event's situation in limbo.



3 months after the delay, It was announced that PSL will continue in June and the remaining matches will take place in Abu Dhabi, Middle East despite the speculations that it will be moved to Sharjah. The fans are excited about the return of the annual cricket extravaganza but at the same time, covid-19 pandemic is not a stranger in spreading worry in the people.

It can be said that the event is returning but the pandemic is not over yet. How can they possibly expect to host matches in Abu Dhabi when the pandemic is raging on? What if more players end up in the quarantine due to the virus? In my opinion, it is not safe to say that the event is ready to return for the live coverage. Since the players were affected by the pandemic and some of them are still in quarantine, then how is it possible to continue the event in a critical situation that puts more players at risk? When it was decided that the event will be held without fans then why are they allowed to hold the event?

What can we expect in PSL? Let me know in the comments below. Feel free to share your opinion.

Does Freedom Really Benefit Us?

Freedom means you are allowed to do anything without any restriction. But is it really true? Give me a break. I mean if it really means free than why it also has a bad effect? That is another theory that tangles me in a web of thoughts. In the last one, I said that the freedom is a word that literally gives us the right to anything, but does that mean the bad things or acts are also allowed? Let me guess, is it right to kick out someone from the job Or is it right to shut down the sim of a particular phone.? If we are free to do anything, then why are you taking somebody's free will or livelihood away from them? It just makes me feel that the word makes you the boss of everything. You have the power to banish anyone from an organization or bury communications with a snap of your finger because you are free to do so. Are you really out of your mind or the word itself have corrupted you? Speaking of word corrupt, this brings us to the government. Why is it not solving our problems? W...

Did The Cable Guy Just Foreshadow The Future 25 years Ago?

It has been almost 25 years since Jim Carrey's 'The Cable Guy' came to theatres. But It seems that The Cable Guy just foretold the future we are living in today. Yes, I watched the movie 25 years after its initial release in 1996(though I was born three years later). There is a scene where Chip Douglas (Jim Carrey) sits with his customer(or presumably friend) on a huge satellite dish. He says this quote which in my mind means the world of social media and technology we are living in today. The Future is now. Soon Every American Home will integrate their television, phone and computer. You'll be able to visit the Louvre on one channel, or watch female wrestling on the other. You can do your shopping at home, or play Mortal Kombat with a friend from Vietnam. There is no end to the possibilities. Jim Carrey in The Cable Guy, 1996 No end to the possibilities indeed. The Cable Guy just described the world of possibilities we are living in. People can shop from home ...
