‘Fantastic, would be more interesting if...’: Sachin Tendulkar on England lifting T20 World Cup
Showing off class action, England on Sunday lifted their second Twenty20 World Cup by beating Pakistan by five wickets at the Melbourne Cricket Ground
Thirty years after losing the 50-over World Cup final to Pakistan at the MCG, England turned the tables on the south Asians with brilliant death bowling and a Ben Stokes half-century that reeled in a modest victory target of 138.
Immediately after the win, many eminent personalities, including former international cricketers, congratulated them.
Congratulations England on winning your 2nd @T20WorldCup. 🏆
Fantastic achievement. 👏🏻
It was a closely fought final and would’ve been even more interesting had Afridi not been injured.
