These are the halls where national champions will be forged, where dreams of representing Pakistan are supposed to take flight. But just outside the door, there’s a rot. A mountain of festering garbage, a sprawling heap of neglect, surrounds the complex. This is the first and last thing athletes see, the insufferable stench their…
