On March 23rd, the West Indies cricketer Daren Sammy was conferred Pakistan’s highest civilian award, Sitara I Pakistan. He received the award for his unmatched contributions to Pakistani cricket and for Pakistan in general.
However, he was not present in Pakistan at the time of the ceremony, so the award was handed over to him recently at Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in Saint Lucia, West Indies.
