Cricket Comes Home With World XI Series

Cricket comes home and Pakistanis are overjoyed, especially our celebrities.

Pakistan is hosting the international World XI for the first time, and is going to be home to 15 players from seven countries set to play a three-match T20 series in Lahore for the next few days.

Wasim Akram aptly tweeted, the World XI in Pakistan is "an epic rebirth of our country's beloved sport - Cricket!"

To top it off, Pakistan won last night and celebrities are ecstatic. Stars took to social media to express their excitement.

Heading to the heart of the nation for what we anticipate to be an epic rebirth of our country's beloved sport- Cricket! #CricketComesHome
