Hmm.... and finally Pakistan won a match against India? Great. Perhaps now the other teams will end their boycott of Pakistan and visit that country to play cricket matches (provided adequate security cover is given to the visitors). I heard that this was one of the matches with the maximum viewership, with an estimated 288 million people watching it in India alone. 30-second ad spots were being sold for ₹10,000,000 ($155,000) in India by the broadcasters.
They stopped hosting in Pakistan, there was a terrorist attack at a stadium a few years ago. It had to do with the security risks of that region, and had nothing to do with their performance in the sport.
I hope that one day all of these international sports world cups being hosted in third world countries will come to an end, with the money being spent on the people.
