'It was icing on the cake'
Pakistan Saturday celebrated the return of international cricket to the country, with head coach Waqar Younis saying a Twenty20 win was the "icing on the cake".
Friday's Twenty20 game between Pakistan and Zimbabwe was the first international match in Pakistan since terrorist attacks on the Sri Lankan team bus in Lahore in March 2009.
Pakistan beat Zimbabwe by five wickets before a 27,000-strong crowd, who battled 42 degree heat and stifling security arrangements.
"It's always good to play in front of the home crowd and winning the game is like icing on the cake," said Waqar, who coached for the first time in a match in Pakistan.
