Indians living in the UK celebrated the Champion's trophy win with much pomp and gaiety.
Last Sunday was half term holiday. The British Pakistanis decked up in their team uniform, wore caps and painted their face, made their way to the Edgbaston stadium in Birmingham, flying their flag.
On the television many Pakistani fans announced that Pakistan cannot be defeated during Ramadaan time. However, after their defeat, fans were seen crying and some appeared angry.
Indian restaurants in London and clubs showed the match on big screen, and it was full house. Though the players were locked down in the hotel, after London's terror attack for a few hours, their patience and endurance paid off in the end. Indians living in the UK took the streets to celebrate the team's victory and Regency circle outside Queensbury station witnessed people climbing the poll on the top to hoist an Indian flag.
In Wembley and Ealing Road, car full of youths drove around celebrating. Many were seen dancing on dhols that blocked traffic. But buses stopped and passengers joined in the celebrations without any complaints.
