‘We win some, we lose some’ was the theme of the tweets by Indians fans after the defending champion’s lost to Pakistan by a massive 180-runs in the Champions Trophy final on Sunday.
Put in to bat, Pakistan – the underdogs in the match – posted 338 for 4 in their 50 overs. It then took them 30.3 overs to bowl India all out for 158.
‘Still the greatest team in the world. Solid throughout a hard-fought tournament...proud of you boys!’ was Ranveer Singh’s positive message for the losing side.
Steve Smith on the other hand, congratulated Pakistan, who’ve won their first-ever Champions Trophy title and first ICC event since their 2009 World T20.
