India were up against their arch-rivals Pakistan in the final of the Champions Trophy 2017 as they aimed to win the coveted title second consecutive time. They were set a target of 339 runs to win in the final and with the kind of batting lineup India had, it looked to be a walk in the park.
India had the world’s best white ball opener Rohit Sharma at the crease who was the only man in the history of ODI cricket to have scored two double hundreds. Fans would’ve given their everything to see the elegant opener smash Pakistan bowlers all around the ground as he set up a memorable victory for his team. Rohit’s pulls would’ve got the entire stadium roaring as India would win their first trophy under the leadership of Virat Kohli.
