Pray hard.Play harder. :-)

Ahmed Shehzad making serious dua that he is not dropped in these next matches

Next to Hafeez is new wicket keeper batsman Rizwan who also is perhaps the best fielder in Pakistan side

Happy Eid to all Pakistan players in SL.

@Hindutavi Rakshas Thanks a lot.

Honestly this is probably the most original and very welcomed piece of news reported by Dawn. As they say a picture speaks thousand words....

Happy Eid Mubarak to the Pakistani team.Play to your capacity and leave the result to the better team on that day.

Wishing Pakistan cricket team a very happy and joyous Eid with peace and harmony in Srilanka.

Good to see heroes praying. Pray for no more injuries and no more foul bowling

Its really difficult to stay away from your dear ones during EID days. These players are sacrificing it being on National duty. We must respect their efforts.

Yasir Shah is looking for the ball while praying...! ;)

Preference should be the month of Ramadan and not the cricket match. PCB should have made the effort to arrange the series around the sacred month of Ramadan. I am sure players could not fast during the series and felt obligated to skip fasting. Employers should try to create encouraging atmosphere where employees can observe the month fervently.

ASSALAM O ALIKUM Happy EID team Pakistan :)

Ahmed Shahzad is praying hard...but needs to learn how to play hard too...how to focus and not throw away his wicket!

where is shahzad's selfie device??? :O

Eid Mubarak to PAKISTANI team.

Pray as much as you like, no one cares. Only results count. However it is a little sad to see all of them not at home due to the profession they chose.

Where is Dilshan ?

Eid Mubarak to the team.

Pakistan player have celebrated Eid in Colombo, three south african player (amla,imran tahir) celebrated their Eid at chittagong in Bangladesh.It is not any factor.The supporter of them always notice Where are they now.I like them wish to them Eid Mubarak and fully respect from Bangladesh.Best of luck for 3rd ODI

We need a 3-2 win over SL to get back in the game, or we are eliminated from the championship. Pray that you don't befriend any bookies during this series.

Inshallah one day series is also ours

Pray that they can play cricket

I personally feel that some moments of someone's personal life specially in the state or act of worship should not be brought into public media or be a subject of comments. Better we leave those acts and moments between the person and the creator.

Is there a Pakistan's High Commission or Consulate. Did they have any role in this regard?

If Pakistan qualifies for important ICC tournament that will be the actual time to celebrate for the team.

Back in 70's Caribbean newspaper termed Pak cricket team as they play hard and party harder. Things have changes a lot these days

Most have glum look on their faces

All dear brothers, at least u getting electricity, 5 star hotel and medical facilities high paid salary, lucky, we do not have anything here. Enjoy your life in cool AC and pray for us in Pakistan.

Shehzad is a real star. Could even act in movies. The last pic looks like straight out of a movie...

A new generation emerging, Pakistan now openly displaying its distinct identity of a nation. Soon it will stand apart from all the rest, as firm in its resolution and the best in South Asia.

WISH YOU ALL THE BEST AND A HAPPY EID

@Hindutavi Rakshas : awesome nice.

@Mujahidul Islam : love mustafizur rahman : eid mubarak to all BD cricketers.

@Qasim Jalal, Karachi : your sense of entitlement is deplorable ; think of those less less fortunate than you (you might want to count your blessings).

Yasir shah posing for photo while in Tashud. He's realy reading his salah.

@Qasim Jalal, Karachi That is an exaggeration. Middle class people have at least one AC and , although I live in Gulshan e Iqbal- not a posh area- there is hardly any load shedding here.

will celebrate the victory too..

what is the news...its so obvious...and taking pictures of these people while they are praying is invasion of privacy... there is now need to show all these close up... bad journalism!!!!!

Islam binds us together. No matter what the rank we stand side by side in the same line

Alhumdulillah, it's inspiring and sad at the same time to see these spiritually moving pics of our Pakistan cricketers in lands away from home, with no family time on such an important Islamic celebration marking the closure of Ramzan. One would respectfully request Dawn assignment editors to please enlighten us as to why the PCB decided to schedule these matches during Ramzan and Eid?? Is there any rhyme or reason justifying this most unfortunate scheduling?

Happy Eid to all Pakistan players in Sri Lanka

Eid Mubarak to all team members and crew!
