This is probably the most important article of the month: an op-ed by Oman's Foreign Minister, who mediated the talks between the U.S. and Iran, in which he writes that the U.S. "has lost control of its foreign policy" to Israel. He repeats that a deal was possible as an outcome of the talks (something confirmed by the UK's National Security Advisor, who also attended: x.com/i/status/20341…) and that the military strike by the U.S. and Israel was "a shock." Interestingly, given he is one of Iran's neighbors and given that Oman has been struck multiple times by Iran since the war began (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran…), he writes that "Iran’s retaliation against what it claims are American targets on the territory of its neighbours was an inevitable result" of the U.S.-Israeli attack. He describes it as "probably the only rational option available to the Iranian leadership." He says the war "endangers" the region's entire "economic model in which global sport, tourism, aviation and technology were to play an important role." He adds that "if this had not been anticipated by the architects of this war, that was surely a grave miscalculation." But, he adds, the "greatest miscalculation" of all for the U.S. "was allowing itself to be drawn into this war in the first place." In his view this was the doing of "Israel’s leadership" who "persuaded America that Iran had been so weakened by sanctions, internal divisions and the American-Israeli bombings of its nuclear sites last June, that an unconditional surrender would swiftly follow the initial assault and the assassination of the supreme leader." Obviously, this proved completely wrong, and the U.S. is now in a quagmire. He says that, given this, "America’s friends have a responsibility to tell the truth," which is that "there are two parties to this war who have nothing to gain from it," namely "Iran and America." He says that all of the U.S. interests in the region (end to nuclear proliferation, secure energy supply chains, investment opportunities) are "best achieved with Iran at peace." As he writes, "this is an uncomfortable truth to tell, because it involves indicating the extent to which America has lost control of its own foreign policy. But it must be told." He then proposes a couple of paths to get back to the negotiating table, although he recognizes how difficult it would be for Iran "to return to dialogue with an administration that twice switched abruptly from talks to bombing and assassination." That's perhaps the most profound damage Trump did during this entire episode: the complete discrediting of diplomacy. If Iran was taught anything, it is: don't negotiate with the U.S., it's a trap that will literally kill you. The great irony of the man who sold himself as a dealmaker is that he taught the world one thing: don't make deals with my country. Link to the article: economist.com/by-invitation/…

Pakistan Begin World Cup Build-Up Amid Selection Questions by Waseem Abbas (@WaseemabbasB ). youlinmagazine.com/article/pakist… #PAKvSL #PakCricket #babarazam #T20WorldCup2026 #T20WorldCup #ShadabKhan #NaseemShah

Old Wine in a New Bottle: Pakistan Looks to Bring Different Results with the Same Tested Formulas by Waseem Abbas (@WaseemabbasB ). youlinmagazine.com/article/old-wi… #PakistanCricket #PAKvSA #BabarAzam #ShaheenAfridi #NaseemShah

@iamqadirkhawaja since Jan 2023, Babar has scored 868 runs in 27 t20 international innings at an average of 34.72 and strike rate of 134.99. He has a century and 6 fifties in this time period. Name others who have this record in the last two years?

بابر اعظم کے پاس یہ آخری موقع ہے کہ وہ پرفارمنس دیں اور ٹی ٹوئنٹی ورلڈ کپ تک کھیل سکیں،،،اگر اس سیریز میں پرفارمنس نہیں آئے گی تو بابر اعظم پر ٹی ٹوئنٹی کے دروازے مستقل طور پر بند کئے جاسکتے ہیں،،،،بابر اعظم بہت بڑا کھلاڑی ہے لیکن پرفارمنس گزشتہ دو سالوں سے نہیں ہوپارہی،،،انشاء اللہ امید ہے کہ بابر اپنی صلاحیتوں کا لوہا منوائیں گے،،،،ہمیں اپنے ٹیلنٹڈ کھلاڑیوں کی قدر کرنی چاہئیے،،،، #BabarAzam

@sohailimrangeo how is that even possible that they drop him from the squad? he is by far rhe best WK batter in Pakistan in both Tests and ODIs.

Candidates for captaincy: Babar , Agha and SHAHEEN . If Rizwan doesn't remain captain, it will be difficult to retain his place in the ODI squad as well.

@AhmerNajeeb should have score more. Babar would also agree on that. The issue with pakistani journalists is that they discuss (mostly criticize) Babar, which gives the impression that he is the only reason of team's downfall. 10 other players are also playing the game.

So you read my all tweets? How you can say pointing out on one batter? Perhaps, people mind why some talk about a certain. Cricket is a game of depth and wide open for debate. For me, this is a similar pattern dismissal what we're seeing for last 3 to 4 years, ball coming back from outside inwards. It means, flaws remain there so its a discussion.

Babar looks good for his 42, but he should have scored more on this track. This is below his caliber when he is looking good but still getting out on 42. He is better than this.

Breaking 🚨 صاحبزادہ فرحان اور حارث رؤف کی سماعت مکمل ہوگئی۔ دبئی میں سماعت کے دوران حارث رؤف نے میچ ریفری سے کہا کہ 0-6 کا مطلب بتائیں، جس پر ریفری خاموش رہ گئے۔ رچی رچرڈسن نے کہا کہ آپ نے 0-6 کا اشارہ کیا اور بھارتی بورڈ کو اس پر اعتراض ہے۔ حارث نے جواب دیا کہ بھارتی بورڈ خود واضح کرے کہ 0-6 کا مطلب کیا ہوسکتا ہے۔ رچرڈسن نے کہا کہ لگتا ہے آپ کا اشارہ کسی اور چیز کی طرف تھا۔ حارث نے کہا کہ آپ بتائیں یا وہ بتائیں کہ میں کس چیز کی طرف اشارہ کر رہا تھا۔ ریفری نے پوچھا کہ آپ نے یہ اشارہ بار بار کیوں کیا؟ •حارث کا کہنا تھا کہ یہ صرف شائقین کے لیے تھا، اس کے علاوہ کچھ نہیں #PakistanCricket

@telenorpakistan Again! Last week I unsubscribed it and today again, it is there!

@WaseemabbasB Hi, Kindly share your issue via DM, so we can assist you accordingly. Thanks!

Every time I recharge through the Telenor app, some shady service like Gameloft, Unlimited Games, or "Ilaqai Ganay" auto-subscribes me. I NEVER signed up for these. And yet, my balance gets deducted. This is theft. @telenorpakistan — fix this. #TelenorScam #BalanceTheft

@hazharoon comparison is illogical. Ali opened with st rate of 60. Abhishak was finisher, had st rate of 118. That was a fifty over event, its t20. ali's game is suited to the longest format, where he is close to the national call up. played pak A and 44 1st class games vs AS' 24 games.

Abhishek Sharma and Ali Zaryab played the same u19 World Cup in 2018. Ali Zaryab averaged 54 Abhishek averaged 26 Since then Abhishek has played 150 T20’s Whereas Ali Zaryab has only played 1 T20 This is the difference how India and Pakistan nurture talent. #PAKvIND
