ICC Champions Trophy 2017 – Twitter Stunned After Pakistan Stroll Into Final

If you thought at the mid innings mark that England could potentially make a staunching comeback into the game due to a typical Pakistani collapse, then you were grossly mistaken! Known to be a side with fickle minded batsmen, unable to chase scores under pressure, the men in green broke a serious stereotype by simply strolling to their target of 212, without any hassles.

 

Playing without any fear of the required run rate, Fakhar Zaman led the show again with an attractive half century. The opener was entertaining in his approach as he went after the English bowling right away. The two openers put on their first ever century stand together and with Zaman bashing England at one end, Azhar Ali too found some form in the middle.

 

Just as Zaman looked all set for a maiden century, he was outfoxed by a googly from Adil Rashid and was stumped. That however, didn’t bother Pakistan’s chase a bit as Ali soon got to his half century. Babar Azam impressed with his outing and struck form ahead of the all important final.

 

With Pakistan as one of the teams in the final, either India or Bangladesh will join them for the final. All in all, it will be an Asian side, lifting the title in England. Fans on Twitter were jubilant with Pakistan winning, and below are some of the tweets.
