Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan
PTI: Pakistan’s former captain and current Prime Minister Imran Khan and the cricket board’s President Ramiz Raja on 25 October 2021, expressed their delight and congratulated the team for its comprehensive win over India in the T20 World Cup in Dubai.
Pakistan drubbed India by 10 wickets in a Super 12 game for their first win over their arch-rivals in a World Cup match in 13 attempts.
“Congratulations to the Pakistan Team & esp to Babar Azam who led from the front, as well as to the brilliant performances of Rizwan & Shaheen Afridi. The nation is proud of you all,” Imran, who led the country to its first World Cup (50-over) triumph in 1992, tweeted.
Ramiz, who was made the President of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) earlier this year, was also delighted with the victory.
“Alhamdolilla … It’s the first one, the most magnificent one but remember, journey has just begun ... such a proud moment for all Pakistanis and thank you boys for providing us this moment to cherish,” Ramiz, also a former Pakistan skipper, wrote on his Twitter handle.
