ABSTRACT This thesis examines the relationship between violence and urbanity. Using Karachi, Pakistan, as a case study, it asks how violent cities are imagined and experienced by their residents. The thesis draws on a variety of theoretical and epistemological frameworks from urban studies to analyze the social and historical processes of urbanization that have led to the perception of Karachi as a city of violence. It then uses the distinction that Michel de Certeau draws between strategy and tactic in his seminal work The Practice of Everyday Life to analyze how Karachiites inhabit, imagine, and invent their city in the midst of – and in spite of – ongoing urban violence.

  • Club Is the Hub Case Study
    CLUB IS THE HUB —CASE STUDY ENCOURAGING A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOUTH EAST ASIAN SOCIAL CRICKETERS AND AUCKLAND CRICKET CLUBS SPORT NEW ZEALAND 2019 03 INTRODUCTION An environmental scan conducted by Auckland Cricket in 2015, identified that while the city is increasingly becoming ethnically diverse, its own membership did not necessarily reflect this diversity. The association saw an opportunity to do more to engage a wider range of the region’s ethnic communities, a goal that was reflected in their 2016 Strategic Plan. The strategic plan was aligned with New Zealand Crickets goal of ‘a game for all New Zealanders, a game for life’. The challenges and complexities of interacting with all of Auckland’s ethnic communities was an overwhelming and resource intensive goal. An analysis of demographic and membership data led Auckland Cricket to focus on the players from the sub-continent South East Asian countries, in particular those of Indian descent, due to the large and growing numbers within Auckland. Surveys and interviews with this target market helped establish insights into potential barriers and strategies for engagement. These insights led Auckland Cricket to develop and implement a collaborative and flexible club-based strategy, rather than an owned and actioned plan. Four key success factors of this initiative have been: 01Understanding and 02Identifying the 03Flexibility in 04Getting started and connecting with right people approach learning as you go your community The initiative has driven greater awareness within the club network about providing opportunities for different communities, which has led to further successful club initiatives via Auckland Cricket’s contestable funding.

  • The Great Game: the Rise of Afghan Cricket from Exodus and War
    The Great Game: The rise of Afghan cricket from exodus and war Author : Kate Clark Published: 28 March 2017 Downloaded: 5 September 2018 Download URL: https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/the-great-game-the-rise-of-afghan-cricket-from-exodus-and-war/?format=pdf Afghanistan continues to make inroads into the world of cricket. The men’s team has progressed from being a disorganised band of reckless hitters of the ball in the early 2000s to a well-balanced team. Two Afghans recently got contracts to play in the biggest cricket league in the world, the Indian Premier League, with deals worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. AAN’s cricket-loving Sudhanshu Verma and ‘not very interested in cricket’ Kate Clark look at how, in two decades, Afghan men have come to compete with the big boys of the game. Afghan women’s cricket, though, they say, has barely begun. For any reader who finds cricket something of a mystery, a brief description of how the game works can be found in an Appendix. For readers interested in sport generally, they might also like to read our reports on Afghan football, brought together in a dossier here. 18-year-old Afghan national team player, Rashid Khan, was in Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe, playing for Afghanistan in a One Day International series on 20 February 2017, when bidding for 1 / 13 the Indian Premier League (1) began. The IPL is the biggest, richest cricket league in the world, watched by millions and attracting the world’s top players. Every year before the season starts, the eight IPL teams bid for new players.

  • The Pakistani Male Diaspora and Cricket in Berlin
    New Sociological Perspectives 2021, Vol. 1, No. 1, 42–56 https://nsp.lse.ac.uk “Playing on the Back Foot”: The Pakistani Male Diaspora and Cricket in Berlin Aseela Shamim Haque* Abstract Although cricket is not yet a widely popular sport in Germany, it has been growing in part be- cause of the enthusiasm for the sport carried forward by South Asian immigrants. Despite the sharp rise in the number of registered teams playing in the country, very little is known about the sporting practices that are in many ways continuations of traditions, social bonds, and as- pirations brought over from home countries. Although the configurations of cricket and South Asian diasporas have been widely researched in the UK and to a lesser extent in Norway, the German context has not received much attention. Through interviews and ethnographic field- work in Berlin, this article addresses that gap by underscoring how the Pakistani male diaspora emerges through cricket. It illustrates the experience of migrancy shared by Pakistani men in Berlin in the context of rising racism and Islamophobia. As such, it reveals how cricket shapes ideas of identity, community, and resistance against marginalisation. In doing so, it emphasis- es how cricket serves as an important avenue for Pakistani immigrants to negotiate their place in German society, form community bonds, express their cultural identities in resistance to racialising norms, and maintain continuities to home. Keywords cricket, Germany, Pakistani diaspora, migration, Islamophobia, racism * Aseela Shamim Haque is a doctoral fellow at the Department of Human Geography at Freie Universität Berlin. She received an MA in Global Studies from Humboldt Universität zu Berlin and this article is part of her Master’s thesis on cricket as postcolonial cultural practice in Berlin.

  • Even the PM's a Fast Bowler: Pakistan Cricket's Need for Speed

It follows the postponement of the T20 World Cup, scheduled for October-November in Australia, and this month’s one-day international series against Zimbabwe. Cricket Australia said the three-match West Indies series had been intended as a warm-up to the T20 World Cup, but could no longer serve that purpose. “In light of this development... it has been agreed to postpone the matches,” CA said in a statement. The series will be take place ahead of the rescheduled T20 World Cup, on dates yet to be decided in either 2021 or 2022. Australia is currently struggling with a second wave of coro- navirus infections and its international borders remain closed, with arrivals required to undergo 14-day quarantine.

    Firstly, I am very thankful to my parents who helped me as they bought some useful stationary items for my project work. I am also thankful to my PHYSICAL EDUCATION subject teacher MR.VIJAY SIR who provided such a nice topic to make a project on it. I had taken reference from “ENCARTA EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE and also from INTERNET”. INTRODUCTION:- Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings. In professional cricket the length of a game ranges from 20 overs of six bowling deliveries per side to Test cricket played over five days. The Laws of Cricket are maintained by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) with additional Standard Playing Conditions for Test matches and One Day Internationals. Cricket was first played in southern England in the 16th century. By the end of the 18th century, it had developed into the national sport of England. The expansion of the British Empire led to cricket being played overseas and by the mid-19th century the first international matches were being held.

He felt dismayed at the prospects of inviting international players after the country’s track record of security and terrorism. Feeling nostalgic about the cricket in Pakistan, Sethi went through the PCB’s documents and shockingly discovered that PCB is generating no revenue like it used to do until 2009. He was well aware of the fact cricket is the sport that is Pakistan’s blood, and every nook and cranny is yearning for live cricket in Pakistan—comparing it with other countries like India, where IPL generates staggering revenues and proved the bordering country with amazement and thrill every year. Indians remain excited that the IPL will continue every year and they will witness the spectacle of deadly yorkers and loft sixes very soon. Sethi feels every other cricket- loving nation have their own leagues like County Cricket, Big Bash League, Sri Lankan Premier League, Caribbean Premier League, etc.
