Emirates is the official carrier of the ICC. Therefore the only route to get to wherever they're going on tour or to any tournament is via Dubai on Emirates.

Shoaib seriously looks like he's been pulled through a hedge backwards. Shirt Collars outside the jacket and the lapels all over the shop. Obviously must have got a little "tired & emotional" on the way to the airport.

[NJamal]

My prayers are with our team. They should perform to the best of their abilities and give it their best shot. Inshallah we will receive them back with the trophy in their hands.

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

Good look team Pakistan, Come back with the trophy in your hands.
The whole nations prayers and support are behind you. Forget what has happened (i.e. controversies) and look to the future so we can earn our respect back in the cricketing world and outside the cricketing arena!
Show the world no matter if our country is down we will always prove to get back up and surprise everyone.
Insha'allah we will win this world cup in style.

PAKISTAN ZINDABAD!
