Pakistan has recently beaten Australia during their latest tour of the country and Sheikh Rashid is most happy about it.
This particular miracle last took place in 2005. I was 12 when it happened. Inzimam ul Haq was still playing for the national cricket team. And there were a lot of other things that happened or didn’t happen during that year.
1. Pervez Musharraf was President
2. Saleem Javed was still producing music
3. Fardeen Khan was still acting in movies
4. Hum TV began its transmission
5. Priyanka Chopra wasn’t hot yet
6. Bhutto asal mein zinda thi
7. Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram didn’t even exist
8. Nawaz Sharif didn’t have any hair
9. Inzi Bhai was still playing for the national team
10. There were no iPhones in the world
The first iPhone released in June 2007. Two whole years after Pakistan beat Australia, in Australia.
11. How I Met Your Mother launched its first season
12. Myspace was the rage
13. England beat Pakistan in Pakistan lol
We sincerely hope we won’t have to wait another 12 years for Pakistan to win against Australia, again. Until then, in the words of the great Sheikh Rasheed:
Well played green shits
