“This is a great event in the history of the Cricket World... reaching the semifinal while strong teams like Australia, South Africa and England are out of the tournament, proves that Pakistan deserves to have international cricket in their home,” says Syed Atiq ul Hassan, president of Pakistani Australian Federation.

Hassan has congratulated the Pakistani Cricket Team and the entire Pakistani nation for playing the mother of all matches which will be watched by the cricket lovers all over the world. In this great movement of cricket, Pakistani Australians are with the Pakistani nation.

Hassan has requested Pakistani and Indian communities in Australia to maintain harmony among each other and take the big game with sports spirit. While Pakistanis and Indians are traditional rivals in Cricket, the World Cup has also brought the two nations together. Leaders of both India and Pakistan after a long time will be sitting together and watching this historic game at Mohali, India. Here in Australia, both Pakistani and Indian communities can also make this event memorable by demonstrating friendship and harmony and accept the victory of the team who plays best on the day.

To watch this great cricket event, many Pakistanis will be gathered at the residence of Syed Atiq ul Hassan in Newington, New South Wales and cheer on their team.
