Like most parts of the world, PTV studio was also filled in with a lot of people supporting West Indies in the finals of the world t20. As the match was reaching the final stages, the nerves started to jangle. It was a thriller witnessed last night.
The moment the last six was hit and West Indies won. The studio erupted and the crew was seen jumping up and down in complete happiness. Brian Lara was leading the celebrations and he was followed by Nouman Niaz, Saqlain Mushtaq, and Rashid Latif.
Glenn McGrath was always the quiet fellow. But still it was absolutely great to see the crew celebrating this win. There was hardly anyone supporting England. This is the scenario which made Ian Bishop say that West Indies is the second most popular team in the subcontinent.
People in Pakistan and India like them a lot. Most of the West Indians are part of the IPl and also made it to the Inaugural edition of the PSL as well. Brian Lara was wearing Shalwar Kameez and not only this he made the Champion dance as well in the studio.
The host asked him that the celebrations would not be completed without the dance and Lara then had to make it and dedicate it to the West Indian players and people. Last night it was a huge moment for the West Indies players and people back home.
The team was facing a lot of problems before they came into India and all those problems and criticism made them into one unit. This was the secret of their success. The luck favored them at some crucial times and as a result, the West Indies held the world t20 for the second time last night.
