Pakistan team has turned back head after their historic ODI series win against Australia. Even though they have not been the favoured team who could have won, the Men In Green defied people’s expectations and beat Australia in the third ODI to secure the series 2-1 on Australian grounds.
Former England star cricketer Kevin Petersen shared his reaction to this historic win by Pakistan. He congratulated the team on their achievement and also suggested that they should make cricket their main priority instead of politics.
“Pakistan WIN in Australia. This is the reason they HAVE TO sort out all the negative ‘noise’ and help the talent show off their skills. Put the politics aside and let the cricket do the talking!” Pietersen wrote on X.

The historic win is the first bilateral ODI series win for Pakistan over Australia in Aussie grounds since 2002. It also came out to be a momentous occasion for Mohammad Rizwan, as he captained his team for the first time in an ODI series. He also shared his happiness about the dedication of his team, along with dedicating the win to Pakistani fans.
“Special moment for me, the nation will be very happy today, we didn’t perform as per expectations in the last couple of years. I’m the captain only for the toss and presentations – everyone gives me suggestions on the field, the batting group and the bowling group. All the credit to the bowlers, Australia in Australia isn’t easy, the conditions suit their style of playing, but the bowlers were outstanding. Also credit to the two openers, they made the chases easy. They (fans) don’t care a lot about the results, but the people back home are always behind us and I want to dedicate this victory to them,” said Rizwan after the match.
