WC 2015: After victory over Proteas, Pak fans decide to support India?
Mumbai: While Team India continued dominating South Africa in their Pool B clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday, Pakistan fans flooded Twitter with their support for the Proteas. So much so that a couple of fans – after giving up hope – tweeted: “Let’s support India.”
WTH Pakistani Jis team ko bhi support kren wo haar jati hai. Let's support India?? #SAvIND

Their love for South Africa - whose jersey is also green in colour - suddenly came alive.
Supporting Green forever. South Africa phorr do please. #IndvsSA *India haar jao please*
— Anam Fatima. (@EffSyFaloodaxD) February 22, 2015The fan – who said the Pakistanis should support India – also added that a smiling face of Virat Kohli pisses her off.
Kohli ko khush dekh k Dil jalta hai. #SAvIND
— Sheen (@Afsheeeeen) February 22, 2015The fans also asserted that even Afghanistan is playing better cricket than Pakistan.
#IndvsSA dkh kr ronaa aa rha ha :"( Kaash Pakistan team bhi strong team hti. And Even Afg is playing much better than us.
