Karachi: Former cricketer Rameez Raja, while reminiscing old days of 1992 World Cup, has said that whenever the team used to lose any match, the players would listen to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's qawwali to keep their morale high.
Ramiz, who was part of world-cup winning team, posted a video on his twitter handler and said that Pakistan’s victory in 1992 was the most iconic movement in country’s history.
"The happiness that our win brought to the nation will always be celebrated. Although our team was small but the goal was huge," he said in the video message.
He further said that whenever the team faced defeat in the tournament, we used to listen to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's rendition "Allah Hu”.
"Our leadership was amazing which transformed a small team into world champions," he recalled proudly.
