Yes, we won!!!!

What a day, what a match and what a victory!!! A special day for all Pakistanis. What wonderful moments. Truly amazing.....the Pakistani cricket team gave us so much to cheer about.

We had to go to a wedding, but like a 'true Pakistani', I refused to budge from the TV screen until the last ball was bowled and the Cup was safely home.

All through the way, we could see people dancing on the streets. They only let us pass when we showed them the V sign. That is all that those people wanted. To share their happiness.

Even at the wedding, people were happier. More than the mehndi, they were congratulating each other on the amazing victory. The DJ took out time to actually call out 'Pakistan Zindabad'.

Tonight, each and every house is rejoicing here in Pakistan. A much awaited and a much deserved victory. We are all together today as a nation, as one. At times of happiness and sorrow, we are all together.

Here are three cheers for the Pakistani team and CONGRATULATIONS to everybody!!!!!

Pakistanis should indeed enjoy this victory as it comes at a time when the nation is stricken with wounds of threat and terrorism. Let us share this moment of joy and happiness!
