(Pak Destiny) It was a competition between ‘Passion and big names of Indian cricket’… in the end the passion wins.
Pakistan Cricket Team today beat India by 180 runs in its first-ever final appearance in the Champions Trophy 2017 and won their first-ever silverware at The Oval.
On the paper it was Indian team having big names like Kohli, Dhoni, Dehwan and Rohit but they were against the passion of Hasan Ali, Amir and Fakhir and at the end the passion succeeds like it did against South Africa, Sri Lanka and England in previous encounters.

Indians must be cursing their team for showing poor performance but remember only one Indian player seemed to have energy matched with the Pakistanis and that was Hartik Pandiya who scored 73 (in just over 40 balls).
In life the passion or energy wins trust you me … whatever the field it is no one can defeat the passion. – Pak Destiny
No cricket at home for last 8 years. But still Pakistan always has talent & passion for cricket.
I just want to appreciate mindset in big final, love that attitude, passion. Pakistani team did their best and outclassed indians. Yes nothing can stay infront of passion.
Yeah true. That were guts, passion coupled with calmness and in the end the BIGGEST WIN as a reward.
And the passion of Imran Khan and PTI will win and beat all the giants of corrupts of politics IA. Everyone considers PTI a weak party with little power and understanding of election gimics but u will see how PTI will emerge in next election. TEAM PAKISTAN TEAM PTI.
