After reaching Lahore for the first time after wining the ICC award for best umpire for the third consecutive time in London this month, Aleem said, that it is the result of his full concentration on the game during every match that helps him a lot to take a right decision even on crucial stages.
“Umpiring is a hard job to do, particularly, when technology is also at work in the match,” Aleem's remarks.
Thanking his fans, Aleem said the award was not only an honour for him, but it is for all Pakistanis.
Stating that all efforts should be made to bring back the international cricket to Pakistan, Aleem said lack of international cricket in Pakistan on security grounds has undoubtedly damaged cricket in Pakistan as such an atmosphere is not suitable for producing talented umpires and players.
Aleem requested to the PCB to introduce central contract for the umpires like other cricket playing nations besides other incentives.
Earlier, Dar was accorded a warm welcome. He was also garlanded and offered bouquet by fans who raised slogans in his appreciation.
