Thanks to Bangladeshi women for coming to Pakistan. 'Fish' for thought for their male counterparts?

Congrats and great performance. It seems that only women are allowed to witness these matches. Its a game and should not be gender segregated. These players deserve appreciation from the nation as a whole. If they cant allow this, then men's cricket audience should also be gender segregated.

Going by today's news,looks like Bangladesh or EAST Pakistan is blaming this tour for Australians ducking from touring Bangladesh.Sports can't prosper in convert nations,whether it's Iraq,Syria or Pakistan,Bangladesh.
