Pakistan Congratulates Team Green Amid Mourning Quetta Attack

In the wake of the Quetta Attack, Pakistanis – though immensely thankful – can’t find the heart to celebrate the country’s 2-0 win against West Indies in Cricket.

Scores of Pakistani cricket lovers took to Twitter to congratulate Team Green, while at the same time mourning the loss of over 60 lives in last evening’s terrorist attack on Police Training Center Quetta.

The tweets below summarize the mood in Pakistan today.

Not the day to celebrate due to #QuettaAttack but atleast some positive news for Pakistan #PAKvWI pic.twitter.com/xOxBL219Y5

The joy of winning against the WIndies is totally lost in the sorrow of Quetta's #nationaltragedy. Flag must fly half-mast.
