Karachi: Angry with their team’s defeat at the hands of arch-rival India in a cricket World Cup match, Pakistan fans in Karachi came out on the streets here and smashed their TV sets to express disappointment in the first game of the World Cup.
Cricket-crazy fans in Pakistan woke up early to watch the eagerly anticipated clash between the arch-rivals in Adelaide hoping that the Misbah-ul-Haq-led side will change history but were left fuming as their team suffered its sixth straight loss to India in ODI World Cups.
It was the most eagerly awaited match of the World Cup and the venue — Adelaide Oval — was ‘under virtual siege’ as Indian fans took complete control of the city outnumbering their Pakistani counterparts.
The green jerseys of the Pakistani fans looked like dots in an ‘Ocean of Blue’. Indians and Pakistanis also exchanged barbs on the social media.
