People are crazy, wasting time by giving attention to cricket palyers, they have done nothing special, it was their duty to play good cricket, PCB and Govt is paying huge sum of money on them, Pakistan is full of hundred thousands of talented players but govt is not giving chance to them.

@Muhammad It's natural reaction for our country because of dearth of rare good news.

@Muhammad You may not be aware that final was being watched by over 1 billion people. TV Radio and Newspaper coverage across many continents. Pakistan received more positive image and then at any time of the history. No matter how much money you spend or do tours to other parts of the world, this cricket match victory in the final cannot be matched for sear image building. What a talented country Pakistan is, producing players after players, even without hardly any cricket infrastructure at home. This show that we are a nation of hard working, talented people not what the media portrays.

Mr Muhammad No doubt its duty of every player and every pakistani to do best in the interest of pakistan. If a soldier do his duty with all salute them similarly these players are true pakistanis doing their job as it is suppose to be done. We all salute them and We respect them. They are common pakistani's Heros.

No foreign cricket team returns Pakistan in the last 8 years for security reasons.

@MMuhammad it is winners takes it all ...these players have achieved extraordinary without any support and any infrastructure...there is a difference between overachievers and nobodies...there are billions of athletes but only best ones earn the most money and prestige...is it fair may be not...but that is whole world works...hence I am glad these players are being rewarded in the proper way
