To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and China, "Iron Brothers Cricket Tournament" featuring Pakistani, Chinese and Sri Lankan teams was held in Beijing, China on Friday.
The event was organized by Embassy of Pakistan Beijing and sponsored by Habib Bank Limited Beijing Branch.
The one-day tournament held at Dongfeng International Sports Park, Chaoyang District was restricted to ten teams which included China Panda Team, Shanghai Cricket Association, Media, Embassy of Sri Lanka, Beijing Cricket Club, PECB and teams from the Embassy of Pakistan.
The tournament was well attended by Pakistani, Chinese and Sri Lankan communities and gave them an opportunity to display the cricketing talents.
Pakistan Embassy Team ‘Kings’ clinched the trophy while Pakistan Embassy College Beijing (PECB) and Beijing Sultan secured second and third positions.
The tournament was followed by an award ceremony at the Embassy of Pakistan, Beijing.
Addressing the audience, Pakistani Ambassador to China, Moin ul Haque appreciated the performance and sportsmanship of participating teams.
He said the cricket tournament was part of over 100 events being organized to celebrate seven decades of friendship and diplomatic ties between Pakistan and China. Ambassador Haque also thanked the Chinese and Sri Lankan teams for participating and making the tournament a great success.
Sri Lankan Ambassador to China, Dr. Palitha Kohona who was the chief guest on the occasion, presented the trophy to the winning Pakistan Embassy Kings team.
Later, a cultural show displayed by Pakistani and Chinese artists enthralled the audience with their national songs and exquisite performances.
Some stalls were also set up to promote traditional Chinese tea and sweets among the Pakistani community.
Pakistan and China enjoy close and friendly relations since the establishment of diplomatic relations in May 1951. Pakistan was one of the first countries that recognized the People’s Republic of China. Over the years, the relationship has blossomed into an “all weather strategic cooperative partnership”. Pakistan considers China as one of its closest friend and partner and China considers Pakistan as its “Iron Brother”.
