Karachi: Minutes after Shoaib Malik’s team lost the ICC world Twenty20 final to India in Johannesburg, Pakistan’s angry cricket lovers burnt effigies of Younis Khan and Shahid Afridi to vent their anger.
The incident occurred at the stadium where the Asian Football Confederation tournament is being played in Lahore.
In Karachi also, mobs in some places gathered to raise slogans against the Pakistani players particularly Afridi and Younis.
“What the hell! This is the second time we lost a match to India in the World Cup. Such a big match and such careless play from senior players like Younis and Afridi. It is so disappointing to lose like this to India,” Kamil Butt said. — PTI
