Pakistani cricket manager Intikhab Alam feels winning the World Cup could usher in a new era in his country's cricket. Intikhab said Pakistan cricket had gone through one of its worst phases in the last couple of years and now they are looking ahead to restoring their pride and glory. The Lahore terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in 2009 left them ostracized by the international cricket community and they were also dropped as co-hosts of the World Cup. Last year's spot-fixing scandal during the England tour involving three cricketers ufffd Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir ufffd did not help matters either. The trio were then banned for 10, seven and five years respectively. "It is no time to look back, though we can take inspiration from the good deeds of the past. We have gone through one of the worst periods in Pakistan's cricket history and we are trying to erase the dark chapter," Intikhab told IANS from Mohali.
