CRICKET-PAK-ZIM-SRI-ATTACKS
To go with 'Cricket-Pak-Zim-Sri-Attacks-Driver' by Shahid HASHMI
In this photograph taken on May 21, 2015, Pakistani bus driver Meher Mohammad Khalil, who drove the Sri Lankan cricket team to safety when it came under a gun and grenade attack by militants in March 2009, speaks with AFP at the site of the attack in Lahore. Meher Khalil earned fame and success after saving Sri Lanka's cricket team from a deadly 2009 attack in Pakistan, but the bus driver calls the incident "tragic" and says it is best forgotten. The 43-year-old will be one of the guests of honour at Lahore's Gaffafi Stadium on May 22, 2015, when Pakistan play Zimbabwe in their first home international since the notorious incident.
