ISLAMABAD: Tempers are running high in occupied Kashmir on the scheduled semi-final of the cricket World Cup between Pakistan and India as majority of the people have their sympathies with Pakistan's cricket team.
Everywhere from a barber shop to the students at the campus of the university and government departments, only cricket is being discussed; all other matters have been sidelined in Indian held Kashmir and people looked caught in cricket phobia; youth are seen debating as to how Shahid Afridi and others Pakistani players would play, BBC Radio reported.
People are sending SMS to one another frequently requesting to pray for Pakistan's success; people are having portraits of Pakistani players like Shahid Afridi, Imran Khan, Wasim Akram adorned in their shops and at their windows.
Though, a few shops and business centers are having the portraits of Indian players as well but such places are very few in number as an overwhelming majority looks supportive to Pakistan cricket team.
