Pakistan T20 World Cup Champions and over loaded twitter too :)




Long awaited after 1992 World Cup.. Pakistan Army in Green did it again .. Long after Imran Khan today.. a young side of Pakistan led by Younis Khan did it again they got the T20 World Cup for Pakistan.

Bowling opened by Mohammed Aamer and Razzak and soon Pakistan was able to send 6 of the Sri Lankan batsmen back to pavillion but then there was a time when Sangakara and Matthews were stable on the wicket and was doing as much damage as possible .. but then a little delight ful bowling by Gul, Ajmal and Aamer and then Sri Lankans manage to score a total of 138/6 was a great fightback by Sangakara and Matthews; It was not easy to score this total in so much pressure...

Kamran Akmal and Shahzaib started the batting and at one time it seems that we gave the match to Sri Lankans :( It was not a bad start but was slow.. but then after the dismissal of Akmal boom came inn and u know what Boom Boom do .. he got good support by Shahzaib and Shoaib and finally on the 4th delivery of 19th over Afridi took leg bye on Malinga's delivery and Chanting's in the air.. firing accross the Pakistan.. Pakistan the cricket crazy nation won the T20 World Cup :)

The aka Blaggers the blogging community of Pakistan. Trend #PakCricket managed to bring the green rally on the 2nd top on hashtags.org after Iran Elections. Live commentary on Twitter was awesome as well :)
