Shocked and angry Pakistani fans branded their team "traitors" and "match-fixers" and said that Wasim Akram's men should be sent to Kargil as "punishment" after their humiliating defeat to Australia in the World Cup final in 1999.
As the nation plunged in mourning, the distraught fans gave vent to their fury by burning the effigy of Akram and calling for his and other senior members' sacking.
