ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry Sunday took the opposition to task for holding the protest against the government in Rawalpindi on March 23 when the Australian cricket team will be playing the third Test match of the tour.
In a tweet, Chaudhry said the team will be playing the first Test series against Australia in 23 years at home.
The whole nation was celebrating the revival of quality cricket in the country, but it was only the “hodgepodge” opposition that felt uncomfortable and planning a so-called power show on “rent”, he added.
پاکستان اور آسٹریلیا کی 23 سال بعد ٹیسٹ سیریز ہونے جارہی ہے پوری قوم کرکٹ کی اس بحالی کا جشن منا رہی ہے لیکن اگر کسی کے پیٹ میں مروڑ اٹھ رہے ہیں تو وہ ہماری چوں چوں کا مربع اپوزیشن ہے جو عین اس وقت پنڈی میں اپنا کرائے کا شو کرنا چاہتی ہے جب پہلا ٹیسٹ شروع ہو رہا ہے https://t.co/Dw8iAw0PbS

It merits a mention here the first leg of the tour will begin on March 4 and the opposition has also planned a series of protests during the same time.
