The mother of all finals
After India beat Bangladesh by nine wickets in the second semi-final on Thursday, it took no time at all for Twitter to explode as the defending champion will meet Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 final. With all the history between these two great sides, Sundayโs final is bound to create a big story either way.
First up, congratulations and well done to Team India!
Great win, and a date with destiny on the 18th. Well done on some scintillating shots today @imVkohli and @ImRo45. ๐
