  "summary": "Pakistan's participation in the World Tenpin Bowling Championship, set to take place in Munich from October 12 to 21, is currently in doubt due to the Pakistan Sports Board (PSB) not releasing funds for the national team. The PTBF, represented by President Ijaz-ur-Rehman, confirmed that the federation has yet to receive financial support from the PSB, which is essential for the team's participation. A four-member squad, consisting of Ahmer Saldeira, Ghazanfar Bilal, Daniyal-ur-Rehman, and Muhammad Mueez, along with team manager Muhammad Hussain Chatta, has been selected for the tournament. The championship, which will feature players from around 48 countries, including the United States, Germany, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Australia, Kuwait, China, Canada, Spain, France, Sweden, the Netherlands, Poland, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom, is expected to be a significant international event.",
