Bravo Pakistan

Heartiest congratulations to the ‘green shirts’ for pulling off an incredible cliff-hanger win against South Africa in the on-going ODI series in UAE.
On behalf of the global fans, admirers, supporters, sponsors, cheerleaders and well-wishers of the Pakistani cricket team, I will like to appeal to the global cricket fraternity in general and the ICC in particular to kindly refrain from counting the team off its roaster. Amid lots of controversies at the moment, the team might be down, but it is Alhamadolillah, not at all out, as they say in America.
My message to the talented Captain Shahid Afridi and his budding team mates at this crucial juncture in time and history is to “keep it up and hang on tough.” Sooner or later, you will get your due recognition in the world of cricket - it’s for sure, just a matter of time and opportunity because real talent could neither be ignored nor snubbed for long. Eventually, it will prove its worth with a ‘big bang’ as it has done in case of Abdul Razzaq’s quick-fire and historic century when it mattered most.
