The Champions Trophy 2017 is in its final lap, and arch rivals India and Pakistan will be involved in a huge clash for the title. Can it get any better than this?
People all around the world have already started talking about the mother of all battles, and Twitterati are extremely busy, getting ready for the final showdown.
An India-Pakistan match is always an exciting affair, where tempers often boil over, and the intensity of these games cannot be compared to any other match in cricket history.
India have shown some great form in the Champions Trophy so far, beating Pakistan, South Africa and Bangladesh. Their only blip has come against Sri Lanka. But their dominating wins have become the talking point. They have been the best team in the competition, and with a strong bowling and batting line-up, Virat Kohli's unit may have an edge over Pakistan.
The men in green, on the other hand, have defeated South Africa, Sri Lanka and England en route to the finals. They will also be buoyed with the results so far, especially when they knocked out the hosts and the favourites, England.
Though India have never lost to Pakistan in the ICC World Cup, their record in the Champions Trophy stands at 2-2. The final, obviously, is expected to be a cracker.
Here is what the Twitterati say:
Its not lagan or border its return of gadar.india vs pakistan.virat ur our sunny paaji.
