Despite the strain in relations between India and Pakistan following the removal of Article 370 in Jammu & Kashmir recently, it is nice to learn that there is absolutely no animosity between the disabled cricketers of both nations that participated in the Physical Disability T20 World Series in England.

In fact, the Indian and Pakistani players are the best of friends. "We players, both from India and Pakistan are very good friends. The Indian guys are lovely people. Vikrant Keni [India captain] is like a brother to me. Mujhe aman pasand hai [I like peace]. Sportsmen always like peace and we cricketers are no exception to this," Pakistan's captain Nihar Alam told mid-day over the phone from the United Kingdom.
