Having been an avid fan and supporter of cricket during his years in the presidency, such a message was expected.
The video shows Musharraf sitting in front of the logo of All Pakistan Muslim League (APML), his newly launched political party. The former president begins by telling team green that he will be keenly following their matches and goes on to advise the players to have confidence in themselves and their abilities and to maintain discipline.
"I have firm belief that you can be the best in the world if you work as a team," said Musharraf encouraging the Pakistani team.
Although the speech may lack the enthusiasm that keeps one hooked till the end, it is a good effort at encouraging the team at the beginning of the World Cup.
