Books need to make some room because this win by Pakistan is going down the history!
As the World Cup 2021 has officially began, Pakistan’s first match was scheduled against India in Dubai on October 24, 2021. It’s not really a secret that tensions exceptionally rise in both countries whenever such a match is scheduled.
The Pakistani Cricket Team had not won a single match against India in World Cup in 29 years; but, you know what they say: never say never!
After winning the toss, Pakistan chose to field and rest is history!
With 10 wickets remaining, Pakistan magnificently won the game and millions of hearts.
After the historic win, captain Babar Azam, extended his congratulations to the nation.
This is for you, Pakistan.

Pakistanis cannot stop appreciating Shaheen Shah Afridi and remembering the legendary Shahid Khan Afridi.
I've been watching Indian cricket for 3 decades and since the 90s its all the same, when we play Pak, a guy called Afridi ruins the day for us, that's just the law, the Indian players change, Pak players change, even the Afridi changes but the Ruined By Afridi thing is forever

The boys in green made their nation extremely proud by winning a match against India in the World Cup for the first time in 29 years! It was definitely worth the wait. With such an exceptional performance, spirits are high for the next match scheduled on October 26 against New Zealand.
