Pakistan have indeed made a come back..

After facing a long run of defeats, Pakistan beat Sri Lanka and claimed their first ever Twenty20 World Cup on Sunday night. I was in Islamabd at the time representing Sindh at the 49th National Swimming Championships and I saw the end of the match on a small public TV in the middle of Aabpara market. And I can say that I have never before seen the enthusiasm amongst the populace which I saw after Pakistan won the T20 World Cup. I was part of the spontaneous celebrations at the Jinnah Super market which continued late into the night and the level of enthusiasm and suport there among the people surprised me.
