Arshad Nadeem, who became the first ever Pakistani to qualify for the final of a track and field competition in the Olympics, could easily have been lost to cricket had it not been for his brother who convinced him to take up athletics. The 24-year-old who belongs to Mian Channu, was a talented cricketer but having to work in the cotton and wheat fields didn't leave him with enough time for the game.
