So, the first ever Pakistan Super League recently concluded. With the nation still getting off of that incredible high, we thought we’d recap on just some of the things that did not happened at the PSL:
1. Semi-naked Cheerleaders gyrating awkwardly every time a player hits a boundary.
We don’t need to objectify women.
2. Shahrukh Khan lungi dancing to KKR’s new theme song.
3. A Lack of Pakistani Players
Coaching doesn’t count.
4. Shilpa Shetty looking like this when Rajasthan Royals loses every time to an underdog.
5. Chris Gayle dancing to Gangnam Style.

Was it because Lahore Qalandars was ousted so quickly? Or because Gayle had other things on his mind, like Mel McLaughlin. 😉
6. The team owners hogging more camera time than the players
Sure, some team owners, like Rana sahab from Lahore Qalandars got adoring fans just for himself, that was more because he was too adorable than because he hogged more camera than the actual game.
7. Lalit Modi miserably failing at dodging the corruption questions
Because Najam Sethi pulled off a fantastic event, he doesn’t need to be involved in corruption over a game.
8. Bollywood gimmicks at every single match distracting from the actual game

Sorry Saif, we have no faith in you.

What we did see at the Pakistan Super League, though, is Pakistan showing the cricket world how it’s done.
On the field
And in the stands.
