Bangladesh hosted the Asia Cup Cricket Tournament in 2000, 2012, 2014 and 2016. There is some environmental protection in law, but it has not been a government priority. Effective tax rates were higher in Britain than France in the years before the French Revolution, twice in per capita income comparison, but they were mostly placed on international trade. In 1901, the Division of Scientific Research was formed, which included the Hygienic Laboratory as well as other research offices of the Marine Hospital Service. The newly founded Peruvian Congress named Bolivar dictator of Peru, giving him the power to organize the military. This, and an ensuing ground invasion, killed nearly every human in the facility, including their father and sister. Some linguists have encouraged the creation of neologisms to decrease the instances of confusion caused by puns. For a while after this, some koi farmers in neighboring states stopped importing fish for fear of infecting their own stocks. Conditions for workers were often poor and exploitative, and local islanders often violently attacked any Europeans who appeared on their island. In 1547, New Granada became a separate captaincy-general within the viceroyalty, with its capital at Santa Fe de Bogota. Because the method relies on antigen rather than viable bacteria, the results are not disrupted by prior antibiotic use. Sir Kay briefly appears in the season 5 opener of Once Upon a Time, where he betrays Arthur and attempts to pull Excalibur out of the stone to rule Camelot for himself. Following the end of the Cold War, defence policy has a stated assumption that the most demanding operations will be undertaken as part of a coalition. Group 1 faxes take six minutes to transmit a single page, with a vertical resolution of 96 scan lines per inch. An additional, more lasting punitive measure taken by the Romans involved expunging Judaea from the provincial name, changing it from Provincia Judaea to Provincia Syria Palestina. Without many refinements, it is best described as rustic, though many holidays are still celebrated with special foods. Many migrant workers racked up debt and depended on the help of charities. The library system also houses original and microfilm collections of Virgin Islands Archives, records, newspapers and other materials. A rapid appraisal survey of Kuy dialects spoken in Cambodia. According to the Black Tie Guide, the peaked lapel and shawl collar are equally authentic and correct, with the latter being slightly less formal. With Salazar gone, Carrera reinstated Rivera Paz as head of state. In 1989, Babangida started making plans for the transition to the Third Nigerian Republic. The Garhajis also have a significant presence in the western and central areas of Sanaag region as well, including the regional capital Erigavo as well as Maydh. Soviet Russia adopted a red flag following the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917. Initially, each conference was numbered after the release, and not regular held. Modern surveys in Europe and the United States show red is also the color most commonly associated with heat, activity, passion, sexuality, anger, love, and joy. God is often believed to be the cause of all things and so is seen as the creator and sustainer and the ruler of the universe. Both teams set out to confirm their results by these methods. This was chased away in November by a visit from four British warships, but later returned.

VK has got more records, but the impact Jos has is unparalleled
This is one sentence in the original ask that really confused me. How do you exactly measure the amount of impact someone has on the game? I don't mean this to be snippy or sarcastic, so apologies if it came off that way. It is a genuine question.
I agree that there is a difference between having records and having impact, because a really impactful innings might not make it to the record books, but the records as a whole do tell us about how skilful and how prolific a player is. It wouldn't exactly be fair to say that the record-holders have had no sort of impact on the game. To give an example, VK's highest score in a T20 match is his 122* against Afghanistan, in the 2022 Asia Cup. But that is hardly his most impactful innings. That laurel would hands down go to his 82* off 53 against Pakistan-- an innings that won't make it among the highest individual T20 scores of all time or any other list like that, but that doesn't mean that it had no impact.
I think VK's impact is something that is magnified only when you compare them with the stats of other players. Take the T20 WC semi final from 2014 as an example. India had to chase 176 against South Africa. VK scored 72 of those runs. The next best score in this match is Rahane's 32. A difference of 40 runs. The 2014 T20 World Cup final. India batted first and made 130/4. VK contributed 77 of those runs. The rest of the team made 47 between them.
Also, the potm and pots awards exist for a reason. They are awarded to a player who made the most outstanding, the most impactful contribution to the team's victory. Sometimes, even a player from the losing team is awarded those prizes because their contributions were so incredibe, so impactful that were those contributions to be taken out of the equation, the team wouldn't even have reached to the stage it did. VK has got the most potm and pott awards in T20s for a reason. It's not because he's scored the most runs, it's because his runs have had the most impact. If the pott awards were given based on who scored the most runs/who took the most wickets, then the Pott award of the 2016 World Cup would have been given to Tamim Iqbal, not VK. The Pott of the 2022 WC would have been VK, not Sam Curran.
I'm not even gonna bring Jos into this. To me, VK is miles ahead of any batsman in T20s.
Also, I'm gonna say it: I'm really annoyed that this discourse is happening when VK just retired. We can argue about who's done more, but VK certainly has done ENOUGH. He ensured India got to the finals and semi-finals of the 2014, 2016, 2022 WCs. We would have crashed out at the group stages if not for him. He scored a vital 76 in this final, his Mohali and MCG innings are superlative and likely not going to be surpassed for a long time. He went out in a blaze of glory, helping India win the World Cup in the last T20 innings he played for his country. The first anon who triggered this debate by saying that Jos had more impact than VK was bang out of line with respect to timing. VK has done so much for his country, he's been prolific and consistent and impactful, and he's given so much to the game of cricket. I wouldn't have contributed to this discourse at all if the comparison was drawn 4 years ago, but it's rancid to try and discredit VK's achievements a day after he announced his retirement. Say "well played mate, congratulations on a great career, appreciate what you've done for your team and the game, you're a great player, but you were a pain in the arse to get out, and the opposition won't miss you on the field!" And once that's done? Move on. People can hate him all they want because he played well against their teams but don't try to deny or devalue the fact that he WAS a great player and one of the, if not the unquestioned best of his times.
(Saying that VK had no impact on T20s reeks of omega erasure tbh. Y'all won't be saying that if he was an alpha. Jos owes his career to VK, being an omega, he wouldn't even have been considered for the england team if VK hadn't debuted before him and gotten the success he did. Jos would still be languishing in Somerset if VK hadn't had the guts to make his debut as an open and out omega, and hadn't had had the skill to bash bowlers around the park and prove that omegas can be good batters too. 😒🤭🤣)
I don’t think anyone is saying VK has had no impact - that would just be silly. He’s clearly rated as one of if not the best white ball batsmen to have ever played the game and his stats do speak for himself.
Please do correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ve never heard VK be called a 360 player. 360 players can always find a place to score irrelevant of the field set which instantly makes them have more potential impact in any innings because they’re so hard to defend from. Jos is a 360 player and his potential impact is high. He’s seen as a very destructive player who, when in form, can be the swing of a game whether he’s scoring 30 or 100 (whether that be from momentum or actual runs scored).
The best ask answer to this was the one that’s just been answered: Jos is destructive and there to get momentum on his side, VK is the anchor you want in all the way to the end. Joe is a very similar player to VK in my opinion.
People are also allowed to think who they want is the better player. Yes, VK’s stats say more than enough and anyone calling him bad is just being silly, but if they think Jos is more impactful then fair enough - you your own addition what is the gauge of impact anyway? It differs depending on match circumstance. We’re all allowed our opinions.
Side note, but POTM is only awarded to the winning team - POTT can be awarded to a losing team player (and usually is given to a player from the losing side of a final)

Mustafizur Rahman is a left-arm pace bowler who came to Dhaka in 2012 to try his luck at a fast-bowler’s camp, after he had impressed in an Under-17 tournament in his hometown Satkhira. 
He was admitted to the Bangladesh Cricket Board's pace foundation and soon caught the coaches' attention to make the Bangladesh Under-19 side for the 2014 World Cup.
 He initially lacked pace, but built it up through the 2014-15 first-class season, when he took 26 wickets. An international call up came soon and Mustafizur impressed straightaway making some of the best in the business look tentative against him. 
He enjoyed great success against India in the Asia Cup in 2016 and caught the eye worldwide for his ability to generate good pace and for his deceptive slower one. The IPL 2016 was his first stint with the IPL and he was known for his lethal Yorker to KKR all-rounder Andre Russell. He was impressive for SRH last year and would be looking to do well in the 2017 edition as well.
RR acquired Mustafizur's services after bringing him on the board for INR 1 Cr. The left-arm pacer from Bangladesh has thus far played three IPL seasons and has 24 IPL wickets to his name and he will be looking to add a few more wickets to his tally as RR look to clinch the IPL 2021 title.

Transforming dreams into reality, Story of Afshan Noreen
Tumblr media
A young girl coming from the city of Gojra not only had big dreams but wanted to materialize those dreams into reality and yes she did it. Afshan Noreen coming from a small city known for hockey has not only managed to wear national color but has brought many laurels for Pakistan. She is one of the main players in Pakistan’s Women Hockey Team. Let us drive through her journey full of challenges and achievements.
Tumblr media
Despite being the national game of our country, hockey has been unable to attain the status even close to most popular game in country, cricket. Generally, the sports culture in our country is not very prevalent with cricket as only exception. Yet, Afshan had decided to progress her career as a hockey player and is currently highest goal scorer from Pakistan. Most of the people don’t know that Afshan’s elder brother has already represented Pakistan’s U-19 and National Cricket Team in Tests and ODIs. While growing up, she saw her brother playing cricket but still she opted for hockey and said that she has preference for hockey rather than cricket.
Tumblr media
Ignoring the challenging environment commonly faced by females, Afshan started playing hockey in her school life and for the first time was selected for junior hockey team in 2012. Due to her extra ordinary performances, she was able to represent the National Hockey Team in 2014. Her winning performance in the quarter final of Asia Cup Qualifiers 2016 against Singapore is memorable for Pakistan’s sporting history. For the first time, women’s hockey team was able to reach semi-final of Asia Cup Qualifiers due to his 1 match winning goal. Moreover, her performance against India in India was also marvelous. Pakistan for the first time was able to not lose match against Indian team because of her 2 goals.
Tumblr media
Afshan has been the only women hockey player of Pakistan to secure international contracts in Australia and United Kingdom. Furthermore, she aspires to play in the world’s best women hockey league in Netherlands. After having so many honors to her name, she still hasn’t been cherished by the sports authorities. Players like Afshan are the ones who constantly promote the better image of Pakistan but are unable to get the needed recognition. Sports board and Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) doesn’t provide central contracts to its players and they rely on departmental jobs for meeting their expenses.
Tumblr media
Hockey was once, the most cherished game across the country as Pakistan won world cups in 1971, 1978, 1982 and 1994. The men hockey started deteriorating in the last decade and the situation can be determined from the fact that Pakistan was unable to participate in the world cup of 2014. Women hockey is even in a more rescue needed position. Let us hope that the current administration pf PHF with the push of sports turned politician, our PM, will make serious efforts for the development of sporting culture in our country. In the meanwhile, we should wish best of luck to sportswomen like Afshan Noreen.
