An earthquake has jolted many cities in Pakistan, including Azad Jammu and Kashmir.

According to initial reports, earthquake jolts have been felt in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Peshawar and Lahore.

As per reports, the intensity of the earthquake was recorded at 5.0 on the Richter scale.

There were no immediate reports of damage or casualties.

In a dramatic turn of events at the World Championship of Legends (WCL), India and Pakistan are on a collision course once more after drawing each other in the semifinal. This development creates a new headache for the organisers after their earlier fixture in the group stage was cancelled.

India Champions managed to sneak into fourth place following their win over West Indies, overtaking England on net-run rate. Controversially, their one win coupled with a point from the abandoned Pakistan fixture was enough to see them through, although many, including Pakistan, called out the sharing of points despite India not taking the field. Usually, a team which abandons the match is not awarded anything, but a charitable gesture paved the way for India’s road to the semifinal.

After not addressing this problem earlier, WCL organisers find themselves in a logjam over how to proceed now. According to reports in Indian media, Yuvraj Singh’s side will again refuse to play against Pakistan in the semifinal tomorrow. Reportedly, they are asking to be paired up against either Australia or South Africa, the other semifinalists, which undermines the sanctity of competition.

With the final looming, the organizers are scrambling behind the scenes to find a solution that works best. With India and Pakistan resuming cricketing ties during the upcoming Asia Cup, there is still hope that this fixture will go ahead as planned.

All eyes are now on an official announcement from the organizers.

One thing is certain: if India and Pakistan do face off, it will be more than just a semifinal. It will be a showdown layered with political subtext, unplayed rivalry, and a chance to let cricket—not controversy—take center stage.
