Chandigarh, November 10

Pakistan’s chances of making it to the semifinals in the Cricket World Cup are very slim following New Zealand’s huge win over Sri Lanka on Thursday.

Former India cricketer Virender Sehwag on Friday took potshots at the Pakistani cricket team bidding goodbye to them. Taking to X, Sehwag wrote: “Bye-bye Pakistan”.

Sehwag, was however, trolled, with a user replying: “I don’t think cricketers should troll. Leave the trolling on us. But you can do it. After all you are the brand ambassador of a guthka company.”

One wrote: “Pakistan qualify for Karachi bus stand.”

Pakistan will play their last league match against England on Saturday.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
