The noise is unbelievable, they love it when Pakistan win, they love it more when Afridi’s the one winning it for them.

**Pakistan, who fell agonizingly short in 2007 and have been through so much strife as a country in the two years since, have pulled off a magnificent victory. Lord’s is a sea of roaring green. **
Spare a thought for the Sri Lankans who were unbeaten right through the tournament. they’ve played brave and innovative cricket and were felled by an inspired side. It’s Pakistan’s moment though … and aren’t they enjoying it. Malik’s generous in his praise for Shahid bhai but he played a crucial innings too, staying calm at one end, scoring at just over a run a ball.

And Thank God we batted professionally and did not leave it till the last over…

I am over the moon …That is twice over the past 3 days!!

And having beaten two of the better teams in the tournament in succession, two unbeatable sides (unbeatable before them met us that is ), I say we are very worthy winners and deserving of the World Twenty-20 Trophy

A much needed victory after all that our country has gone thru (and still is) in recent times because of Taliban nuisance

This should unite the whole nation

Pakistan zindabad!!

I think the crowd is right…Afridi helped Pakistan to win a couple of knockout matches…he is awesome…
