That painful lost to India in 2007 world t20 final in which misbah played that infamous shot :misbah3 haunted me alot even though we won the world t20 2 years latter in 2009 but still it hurt me because india denied us of an ICC title but 10 years in London we have our revenge we have denied India an ICC title and won it against them so finally we have the revenge against them for that match.

2 defeats against india have hurt me alot that world t20 final and other being Mohali SF..so we have avenged one defeat iA Mohali will be avenged soon too
 
THIS!!

This is the best thing that could have happened to avenge that loss in the final. It was very painful as many of us had already won the final but then Sreesanth ruined everything.

Now we have done the same and given India a defeat that they will remember for generations!
 
For me was the 2012 Asia Cup game. That hurt the most and still does to this day, but todays win definitely eases the pain from 2007. Apart of me was really thinking that this game could go the direction of the 2012 game and I was really worried until we got the 3 early wickets

same here when rohit got out i said to my father just like gambhir in 2012
 
The 2007 final was a much closer game and how most cricket games should be played. The fact that India was absolutely massacred in this game makes it even more bittersweet.

But Pakistan won the Asia cup in the end. India beat us in a group stage game that was somewhat inconsequential.
 
Good. I'm happy for you. In WC 19 we won't be this generous though :kohli

Lol.

Nope, I certainly can't compare the two events themselves, A T-20 WC title is way more hard to earn then CT.
 
T20 WC title is worth alot more imo, we thought we already had it with that scoop and i remember all of us screaming in joy as he connected only for sreesanth to emerge out of nowhere on the screen to take the catch. An Absolute cliffhanger of a match, our hearts were broken. This CT win is huge but a befitting revenge for that final would have been knocking out India from WC 2011 SF in Mohali.
 
LOL @ the last 2 posts. World T20 is below an icc 50 overs event and that being the CT.

Remember till today ever one still talks about the 92 WC. the world t20 win from 2009 hardly gets mentioned.

Now this CT win will be remembered for a LONG time.

Its

92 wc win

2017 ct win




2009 world t20 win
 
remember CT was scrapped, only to be brought back after the test championship didn't materialse?
And again there are suggestions that it will be scrapped again in favour of WT20 every 2 years.
The suggestion that 50 overs cricket is superior to t20 is just plain dumb, each is a competitive format
the point is that that t20 final defeat was just too much of a heartbreak because of the fact that it was decided on the last ball. it felt bad to come all the way and lose when a win was so close.

(2 world cup and CT, come on man you're comparing the world 3rd biggest sports event with a nothing tounament!

You just need 4 matches to win and you can also be as lucky as Bangladesh was and as unlucky as Australia was!

This CT is just getting to be overrated because we smashed India in the finals otherwise its fame would've been stages below the present fame.

The previous T-20 WC had more viewership then the previous WC.

CT would've been way better if it was a league tournament with finals between the top 2.
 
PAK has won 2 times against IND in CT, this is their 3rd win albeit in the finals.

I hope our streak against you in WC is never broken both in 50/ 20 over WC's :P
