The Gentleman and the Beastly Game: Zeeshan Syed Rizvi

Common perception about rugby holds that it is a game of beasts. For Oscar Wilde, an Irish novelist and playwright of early 20th century, “Rugby is a good occasion for keeping thirty bullies far from the center of the city”. But according to another clichéd saying, attributed to athlete Henry Blaha, “Rugby is a beastly game played by - [well] - gentlemen”.
One such “beastly” gentleman is Zeeshan Rizvi, captain of the Islamabad Jinns since January 2011. He is amongst the youngest of the lot, but his tremendous talent and international exposure make him an ideal candidate to lead one of the only two recognized rugby clubs of Pakistan (the other being the Lahore Rugby Club).
