Indian cricketers hailed the Indian Air Force's early morning attacks on Jaish terror camps in Balakot. From Gautam Gambhir to Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar, the cricketing fraternity was at the forefront in congratulating the Indian armed forces on the successful operation on terror modules.

Gautam Gambhir retorted to Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan's statement that Pakistan will respond "at the time and place of it's choosing" to Indian Air Force's strikes at Balakot.
