so India will be the first team to complete the ICC tournament Grand Slam Right ?
Grand Slam is just a term I coined :laugh1:

But yes, essentially they would. India are already holders of the ODI World Cup and Champions Trophy. That makes it two out of the three ICC sponsored tournaments.

I know.

As a Pakistan Team fan they will have the three out of three ICC sponsored Trophies just like they bought ICC couple of months ago :p

but speaking the truth Kohli is a great batsman even better then Tendulkar if you ask me.

May our batsmen get same maturity level as of kholi !

On the otherhand , do you guys think we should get a t20 captain out of blue ? If i am not mistaken , austraila did the same by handing the captaincy to George Bailey.Given captaincy without any international T20 on cards.

IMO Srilanka deserve to win cause they are playing in 3rd consecutive world T20 final lost against Pakistan lost against Westindies so this time they should back themselves up..AND for KOHLI kya khata hai yaar wo jo har match mein itna acha khelta hai..BUT there is a fact What goes up must come down.. UROOJ KO ZAWAL HAI..so his time will come..

Abhi Kohli ka Prime hai zawal aye ga 10/15 saal bad Kohli ka zawal ka wait karne se acha hai PCB Pakistan main achay Batsman find karay.

Waise bhi Kholi se pehle India ke pass Dravid tha,Tendulker and many more great batsman's why can't we produce batsman of that caliber in our Country ?

Guys. Don't jealous. Enjoy Kohli's batting and appreciate the effort he puts into it :p

It's easier to become a great Test batsman than a great Limited Overs player. For one, you don't have to pace an innings and score at a rapid pace. Because doing so brings its own risks.

This strategy hasn't worked out well for them. Didn't Bailey make his debut as captain? :hah: He looks out of sorts most of the time.

Always pick a captain from the current crop of players. Preferably, he should be groomed for the role. Like Sri Lanka does with its captains (Chandimal in this case)

Sri Lanka offers $1million bonus to win T20

The Sri Lankan team will be handed a million dollar bonus if they can shake off their reputation as chokers in the final of the World Twenty20 this weekend, the country's cricket board announced Friday.

The day after the players won a rain-affected semi-final against the West Indies, Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) said it would treble the money it had previously promised if they return home from Bangladesh with the trophy.

"The Executive Committee of SLC which met at an emergency meeting this morning decided to offer $1.5 million (including the original fee of $500,000) to the national team players in the event that they win the final," the board said in a statement.

Sri Lanka -- who will meet either South Africa or India in Sunday's final in Dhaka -- were the beaten finalists last time round when they lost to the West Indies even though they were the tournament hosts.

They have also been beaten in the final of the last two 50 over World Cups, meaning they have not won a major trophy since their victory in the 1996 World Cup under skipper Arjuna Ranatunga.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
