sweat of his brow. He goes his field early in the morning and comes back in the evening. He takes
his lunch in the field. He cultivates and prepares his land with simple hand-made tools. He becomes
happy when he gets many crops. But he gets pain when his harvests. Though he grows his harvest
with a heavy labor, sometimes it is destroyed be droughts, floods or cyclones. In spite of working
hard he cannot maintain the basic needs of his family. Sometimes he lives from hand to mouth.
Though the poet and the great men say that they are the backbone of our country, they are neglected

(i) Pakistan Super league Games (PSL)
Pakistan Super League Games, which took its formative root since 2015 has become a routine
yearly event, attracting attention of cricket lovers and generating excitement among astute
cricketers globally. The Pakistan Super League 2019 (PSL 4) edition is just around the corner. A
minor initiative of the Pakistan Cricket Board has grown to an internationally acclaimed event.
The 4th PSL edition beginning from February 14, 2019 is devoid of the previous commercial rights
like the HBL sponsorship. Although Geo Super TV Channel is billed to air the official broadcast

BISE, Hyderabad
Seetal Daas
of the PSL Draft event on September 29, 2018, but it is not yet clear if it will secure the full
broadcasting right of PSL 2019.
The 4th PSL will be held in UAE, Pakistan and Karachi. UAE will be home to the initial matches
beginning from 14th of February, 2019. Pakistan will hold the subsequent eight matches while
Karachi will have the honor to host the final on the 17th March, 2019.
The PSL has really come of age with the decision reached in June 2018 to decentralize the 2019
edition. This move is selling the PSL to the outside world and raising to an international event. No
wonder some international cricketers from South Africa and Australia were billed to participate in
the 4th Edition to add color to the event of 2019.
(ii) My Ideal Leader
Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah was born at Karachi on 25th December, 1876. He was the
founder of Pakistan. As a young boy, he was educated at Karachi. At the age of sixteen, he passed
his matriculation and then he was sent to England for higher studies. On returning from England
he started practice as a lawyer first in Karachi and then in Bombay. He joined the Indian National
Congress but soon left it and joined, the Muslim League, to lead the Muslims of India. He added
about education, “Education was a matter of life and death to our nation. The world is moving so
fast that if we do not educate ourselves, we will not only be left behind but also be no more.” He
started a long and hard struggle to get a separate country for the Muslims of India. On 14 August,
1947, Pakistan appeared on the map of the world. He worked day and night for the progress and
improvement of Pakistan. The Qauid-i-Azam died on 11th September, 1948. Although he left us
very soon but his speeches are there to guide us. If we follow the directions given in them, we shall
be able to serve our country in better way.
(iii) My Lovely Home
There is no other better place in the world, than being in the comfort of our homes. Home is where
we learn the first lessons in life. My home is situated in Golarchi city. A very fast-moving place,
yet I love the place. We live on the second floor of apartment. Our home is small, yet it has all the
joy and happiness that I could ever dream of. My father works as a banker and my mother does
writing. I have a little sister and we make our home. My grandparents live close by, but not together
with us. We just have a two-bedroom apartment, with wonderful balconies and a good kitchen,
where my mom always cooks great delicious food. In one of the rooms, myself and my sister share.
We study and play in that room. I love my home very much. There is so much of fun and joy at
my home. Though we fight for small things, my parents make us realize about all the good things
in life and we try understanding them. We love our home very much. Being in the city, we also
enjoy weekends going out and sometimes mom trying new recipes. Our home is sweet and as we
see it, it is really “Home sweet Home”. As the saying goes “A house is built by hands, but a home
is built by hearts”, our home is also built by hearts. A warm, welcoming and loving place is what
my home is.
