KUDOS TO INDIAN AIR FORCE
Surprising the Pakistani regime, India has given a befitting reply by pounding the terror camps in POK and our air force deserves kudos for this successful mission.

If at all, that doesn’t happen, then Indian team should forfeit its match against Pakistan even if it loses two points or for that matter, eventually the World Cup title.
