Pakistan’s cricket team emerge victorious on Sunday in a match against South Africa at Lord’s Ground. The green shirts made a comeback after their last defeat to India in a nerve-wracking match and this win has garnered praises and love from all quarters.
Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat first, setting a strong 309-run target for the Proteas. South Africa’s team struggled to meet the score, ultimately sending them back home. Pakistani team needed this win to lift up the disheartened nation and those who were watching it live in the stadium celebrated with as much fervour as fans at home. Many celebrities took to Twitter and congratulated the team:
You’re a wizard Harry #HarisSohail #PakvSA #LordsRightNow

Big game today but let’s just all sit back, relax and enjoy it instead of constantly criticising the players. Win or lose, this is our team and if we won’t support it, no one else will! #PakistanZindabad #PakVSA #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/FPjn4jI25f

Excellent performance Pakistan! The bowlers backed up Haris Sohail’s brilliant batting effort. Hope the momentum will be sustained in the games ahead. BUT the fielding must improve so many dropped catches, can’t be excused at all! #WeHaveWeWill
