The defeats are a jolt to a full-strength Pakistan side in their preparations for the Twenty20 World Cup
Back in my school days, I once did a tightrope walk at NCC Scouts. It's memorable for me because I completed the stunt in one go. It was thrilling and scary at the same time because the rope was mounted at a height of 25 metres and its walking distance was 20 metres long. I even had my photo published in the school magazine - but I couldn't get a hold of that photo for myself, because it cost Rs10 and I could not afford to pay the amount at that time.
Minsk, the capital city of Belarus. From its museums to its mountains, it's just one breath-taking sight after another - not to mention the mouth-watering Belarus cuisine. If I ever go on a relaxing holiday, it has got to be Minsk.
Even with the last penny in my pocket, I will take a risk. We tend to view risk-taking negatively, often regarding it as dangerous and even unwise. Most people I know who have achieved success in life have done so because they've been willing to take on a challenge that others were too afraid to. But beyond the external opportunities and recognition risk-taking can bring, it also provides an opportunity for personal growth. You only learn when you are at risk. It teaches you the true value of things and what it means to lose them. I have learned so much from my mistakes and it's those things that've got me to where I am today.
I'd love to learn paragliding because the idea of flying free, like a bird, fascinates me more than anything else. Seeing the land from the sky, feeling the wind blowing through my hair, soaring across the mountains and swooping above rivers. It would be great!
Always bring out the best in people. I can't tell you how many times I've been in that place in my life myself. Everyone is down at times and we all have our doubts and fears, but I do believe that everyone has their own unique capabilities too. Sometimes, all we need is a little encouragement. A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
There is no historical event that I wish to revisit, but if I could go back in time, I would go back to April 29, 1994. It was my sister's wedding day - and I missed it because I was tied up with work commitments in Dubai. To this day, I wish I could have been there.
The people who are closest to me, my family and my friends, are the source of my strength and motivation. They are the driving force that keeps me going because they believe in me, even when I doubt myself. I am the most sensitive person when it comes to my two beautiful daughters and loving wife. The thought of losing them scares me more than anything else in the world.
Warren Buffet. I have always wondered what it would be like to have, and run, such an empire. If I am so busy these days, how much more would I be working when I get to his level? People call him a wizard, but if could be him for a day, perhaps I could see the secret of his wizardry.
My all-time favourite is Abhishek Bachchan's titular character from the movie Guru, as it portrays the role of a very ambitious man who started his life from a very small village, yet dreamt of becoming a famous business tycoon - and how he did it.
I would get the media under control. Media is one the biggest sources of information for people. Sadly, unchecked freedom given to these channels can lead to the spread of misleading information throughout the country. Also, many people use the media for their own agenda, including spreading hate, creating controversy and so on. I think it is important to put at least some restrictions on them, so the news remains positive and informative.
