So if Pakistan beating Australia 4-3 is a thrashing, then Australia beating Pakistan at the Hamburg Master Hockey tourney was a trouncing! Who is responsible for these over-sensationalised headlines? Congrats to Pakistan, it sounds like your win was very well deserved. Hopefully this is the start of a great period for Pakistani hockey & I look forward to more clashes btwn you & Australia.
