A roller-coaster tournament i.e. Champions Trophy 2017 has finally come to an end. In the final match of the tournament, the two Asian giants, India and Pakistan met each other for the second time in the tournament. Unsurprisingly, Pakistan managed to win the match quite comprehensively in a visibly one-sided match as they thrashed India by an astounding margin of 180 runs.
As soon as the match came to an end, or dare I say, even before it had come to an end, Pakistan Cricket team managed to get plenty of appreciation from current and former cricketers all across the globe. The cricketing world at Twitter was full of praise for Sarfraz and his men who performed outstandingly well to outplay India in all three departments of the game.
