KARACHI: Three Malhs from Sindh have been selected in the national squad that would be participating in an international malakhra event to be held in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, next month.
Shoaib Ahmed Siddiqui, Secretary Sports and Youth Affairs to the Government of Sindh, disclosed here on Friday that the trio of Allah Dad Rahoo, Gul Hasan and Mukhtiar Ali has been picked up for Pakistan following the nationals held recently in Faisalabad.
"Allah Dad and Gul Hasan belong to Benazirabad while Mukhtiar Ali hails from Naushero Feroze. They have been selected on the basis of their performance in the recent trials where their participation was facilitated by the SSB," Shoaib Siddiqui revealed.
He further disclosed that the international malakhra event, a virtual World Cup for the sport, would be staged in the Lithuanian capital from December 16 to 18 where Pakistan would be fielding a strong team. "It's very heartening to note that as many as three Malhs of our province will be representing the country in the global event," he said.
