Hasan Ali’s wicket of Bhuvneswar in the CT final.

Will forever live in the memories of Pakistani fans! :)
 
Hard to pick just one, there's been some special moments this year.

In Tests - "Got him, WHY did he do that ?!"

In ODIs - Amir's magic two balls to Kohli and the stuff of fairytales which was our comeback in the CT.

In T20s - the PSL final in Lahore.
 
Tough to pick, this was a solid year. I had to go with Amir's spell in the CT17 final. Fakhar Zaman played a great innings but it was Amir's 3 wickets that made us realize that we were going to win.
 
Heart says Amir to Kohli


Mind says Shah to Gabriel
 
Amir to Kohli.

BUT you could choose multiple moments from that match.
 
I'm not Pakistani, but Amir to Kohli is the one that will be remembered over the others for years to come.

Be honest, what did you break at home when you saw Kohli fall the very next ball after being dropped?
 
Yasir taking Grabriel's wicket. I am not sure if anything else comes even close when it comes to impact.

Memory wise I think many good moments for Pakistani fans to pick.
 
Good year overall for Pakistan cricket Alhamdullilah. Definitely heading in the right direction as a team.

I’d pick Yasir to Gabriel and Amir’s spell in the CT final.
 
Voted for Amir to Kohli but there were many moments in that match.

Who can forget Nasser Hussain's famous lines on commentary when that catch was taken the ball after it was dropped

I was half expecting it to happen seeing how shaky he was looking - so not too disappointed!
 
Amir to kohli
"In the air goneee not that important he's gone the next ball. Pakistan Cricket at its best one minute down, next minute up!"

It’s not the batsman that matters.

It’s the feeling when the player tries to fend off the hairy ball from Hassan and lobbed it straight into the air for Sarfraz to take a historic catch :)

“That’s gone up in the air... Sarfraz takes the catch it’s all over, Pakistan win”
 
The final wicket in CT final was pretty great but the match was really already over by then so it was expected. The standout moments of the match were really Fakhar's middle-overs assault and Amir vs Rohit, Dhawan and Kohli.
 
How are any of the PSL moments like the bat drop comparable to champions trophy moments? :))

they are moments in time and were enjoyed a lot at that time.

Seems like Amir to Kohli was the most memorable moment for the majority of Pakistan cricket fans. Rightly so, to this day I still watch highlights of the final :)
 
Bat drop. Every time I watch it, i love it more. This the cricket best celebration ever!!!
 
Amir to Kohli was amazing, if everyone remembers it at the exact moment of when it happened then they'd remember how static that moment was.
 
Amir vs Kohli

Summed Pakistani cricket up perfectly.

The drop catch the ball before.

The worry when you realise that Kohli could win the game for India.

The indescribable emotion when Amir gets Kohli the very next ball

The relief when you realise that in that moment Pakistan has most probably won the Champions Trophy.

Nassir Hussain summarised it perfectly - "Pakistani cricket at its best! One minute down - the next minute up!".

The spiralling heights and dizzying lows which Pakistani fans are ever so familiar iwth experienced in a span of 1-2 minutes.

Beautiful :amir

Yasir Shah's dismissal of Gabriel, Fakhar Zamans innings in the CT 17 Final and Shadab Khans final over heroics were also very memorable occasions, and more importantly, I hope they will inshAllah set the platform the launch of 3 future Pakistani cricketing superstars.
 
Younus Khan reaching 10,000 runs should also be listed in the OP poll I feel.

An absolute legend :yk
 
Amir to Kohli
Ganguly:Well how important is that dropped catch going to be

NH:In the air gone not that important Pakistan cricket at it's best one minute down next minute up!
 
The champions trophy win and MisYou's final test series were so special

Best call on commentary of the year
 
For me the best moment was rohit sharma's wicket.After what he said about amir whenever he gets the wicket of that overrated FTB it gives me great pleasure and virat kohli's wicket was 2nd best moment!
 
Shah's wicket and Amir getting Kohli will easily be the most remembered moments down the line, especially the latter, that's up there with Wasim's brace in 92
 
Some excellent memories mentioned above - please vote for your fav
 
#MisYou has to be a tear-jerker moment for 2017
 
Being at every match of the Champions Trophy was special especially at The Oval after winning the tournament. Seeing and meeting several of the Pak players shortly after the win was a superb time.
 
I don’t understand how anyone can vote for anything other than the Amir/Kohli moment. That was by far the biggest moments of this year.

I still regret to this day that I wasn’t able to go to more matches. I only attended the first two games and I could’ve also gone to the following two matches aswell but I opted to watch the games at home because I wasn’t expecting much from the team like everyone else.

I actually did go to the final though hoping that I might be able to buy a ticket but they were all too expensive.
 
Some moments from PSL 2017 in there too - hopefully we should get similar ones in PSL2018
