“The set of three stamps will cost Rs30, while the souvenir sheets are priced at Rs50 each,” Awan told reporters.
It is pertinent to mention here, Pakistan thrashed arch rivals India in the final of ICC Champions Trophy in England. The green shirts set up a huge 339-run target on loss of four wickets. Chasing the total, Indian batting collapsed and were bowled out on 158 runs in the 31st over.
The score is Pakistan’s second-highest against India. The last time Pakistan beat India in an ICC event was in 2009 that was too in Champions Trophy.
