Earlier today, the country’s chief executive secured 178 votes, six more than required, in a voluntary vote of confidence following a recent upset in Senate polls.

The victory was well-received among many current cricketers as well, including Mohammad Hafeez and national women’s team player Javeria Khan.

Javeria wrote lyrics of a popular Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf anthem to share her happiness while Hafeez called the win a “Masterstroke.”
