Pakistan Day Mubarak, Pakistan. World Cup Mubarak, cricket lovers (the ‘real’ World Cup really started today with the first knockout stage match, between Pakistan and the West Indies). And, hopefully, very soon, Match Mubarak, Pakistan.
The game is still being played as I write this. But Pakistan is off to a great game and hopefully on its way to a comfortable victory. A fitting way to celebrate Pakistan Day. And a fitting gift on Pakistan Day to all Pakistanis.
A sincere thank you from all Pakistanis to an awesome Bangladeshi crowd. Their support and sportsmanship was astounding. Indeed, there has to be tension and bitter memories for some. And those need to be honored and addressed. But to see the support and love for the Pakistan team around the ground today was a good feeling. Maybe even a better feeling than Pakistan doing so well on the field.
Pakistan Storms into Semis….What a gift to the nation on Pakistan Day!
Congratulations all!
Pakistan Zindabad, Bangladesh Paindabad, …Joi Bangla as and jai Hind as well :)
Thank you, Pakistan.
Thank you, Bangladesh.
Well played cricket team and mubarak to all Pakistan supporters on Pakistan Day!
They should cruise all the way to the final. Playing in India will be tough but the host team will be under greater pressure. Pakistanis can use it in their favor. India relies heavily on batting with mediocre bowling. This can be another winning point. All this on the assumption of India crushing Australia in QF, which has odds of 40-60.
