ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani will invite the members of national cricket team on their return to Pakistan to acknowledge their performance in the Cricket World Cup and reaching in the semi-final.
A spokesman of the PM House said the gesture is to encourage the players for even better results in the future.
He added that Wednesday's semi-final match in Mohali, provided a very useful opportunity to the leadership of Pakistan and India to get together and discuss the whole gamut of bilateral relations.
The Prime Minister, he said, has termed his interaction with the Indian leadership as a milestone for opening up a new chapter of good neighbourly relations and cooperation between the two countries.
He said the warmth and hospitality shown by the Indian leadership and people to the Prime Minister, his entourage as well as to Pakistan's cricket team, were reflective of the shared sentiments of goodwill between the two peoples.
