ICC can take India only all the way to Final by placing them in the easy group and easy draw to garner more viewership and cash but cannot gurantee a championship. India has to play on their own even if they get to manage favorable decisions by the umpires!

A warm hearty congratulations to Pakistan team! A very timely and deserving win and trophy against all the odds! Love from Bangladesh!

very nicely done !

Hopefully, relations between India and Pakistan will improve on all levels now. As a Pakistani-Canadian and by birth Indian, I sincerely pray for promotion of amicable relations between the two countries now.

@MMKhan Negative people like you cannot even celeberate success!

@nADEEM WINNING comment sir! These are the kind of people who blame everyone but themselves for things not working out for them. No hope for them. Back to the game - great win for the Boys in Green. What's best about this win, a lot of youngsters actively played a role. Imagine how dominating this team can be in a couple of years if they work hard and keep their heads on straight! PCB - please don't mess this up.

A great victory - I think the new opener that Pakistan has had made a huge difference

WOW!!!!!

@MMKhan We don't consider you(Bangladesh) our rivals,as much you want us to do.Your comment says a lot about your country's mentality and maturity. Congratulations to Pakistani team and people,you guys outplayed us today and your bowling was a treat to watch.We love Aamir here,he was at his destructive best today.Love from India

By winning the mother of all cricket games, Pakistan made their people happy! And by beating India, they made the rest of the world happy!

@ripan Thank you I wish all Indians and Pakistanis are like u

Team Pakistan you did it, well done boys. Congratulations to you, no its more than that. You have made Pakistan proud today.

Indian team get best out of Pakistani cricket team, this game made more people to get involve than any other game in past. Both countries were at stand still, luckily it was Sunday. Team need custom made green blazer for each player once they reach home.

@MMKhan : Thank you :)

Shadab, should deliver fast balls. Many 6s were recorded during his balling.

@MMKhan Thanks..BD did great this time too..wishing you better luck in future

Indian fans left Oval earlier, win or loose, should support the team.

Both Indian and Pakistani population was so much involved in game, no one was watching borders on each side, both side military was on time off.

Umpire Erasmus didn't signal WIDE, it was a "NO BALL". Pl correct that n congratulations Pakistan

@MMKhan. The WORLD agrees with your very astute winning observations: "By winning the mother of all Cricket Games, Pakistan made their people happy! And by beating India, they made the rest of the World happy!" GOD Bless Bangladesh & Pakistan!

@MMKhan "By winning the mother of all cricket games, Pakistan made their people happy! And by beating India, they made the rest of the world happy!" We are extremely happy that we won this game but we are not poking any insults to Indians. Losing this game does not mean that they are not a good team. They have one of the best batting line up since the beginning of time.

Congratulations Team Pakistan and whole country on this historic win by defeating India by 180 runs in he Champions Trophy 2017.

@MMKhan Thanks brother.

@ripan Thanks.

@Muba Yes, they did come to the Semi Final, it was great achievement. We always support our brothers in Bangladesh.

Pakistan Zindabad, Pak Team Pain da bad

One thing about Indians, they have come of age! This is perhaps the first time that Indians dont feel upset about the loss and are ready to acknowledge that it was a bad day at office and Pakistan had a extraordinary day. Indian teams capability is realized by everyone... and not just on paper, they are truly champions.

Amazing how cricket has floursihed in the Indian sub-continent! Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh, all played extremely well. Pakistan, of course, took the well-deserved crown. Hearty congratulations to Pakistan for a magnificient and absolutely thrilling victory. May you win the World Cup too.

Well played Pakistan, bad luck India, perhaps next time.

This victory is more historic and memorable compared to 1992 World Cup!! What a performace by Young Guns of Pakistan! You made all nation proud! Amir, Fakhr, and Hadan Ali decimated India's famed Kohli lead super stars who play immense amount of IPL cricket.

I must admire the demeanor and post match comments of Mr. Kohli the Captain of Indian Team. Brave.

@Smith ..Indian fans want only one result.. Win for Indian....... Good observation on your part.. I saw seldom any Indian fan in the stadium even sitting quite when they felt no hope at all.. they left .. what a treatment they give to their team

it was great victory by pakistan against india in champions trophy yesterday. It will be boost to pakistani cricket. I think it is the victory of cricket. Love from india

Typo. Umpire signals no ball and not wide

Well done Pakistan. You have shown to be a steam roller that demolishes everything in their path. Bat and ball, talent in both fields.

I LOVE PAKISTAN GEO PAK

Pakistan played well. Congratulations!!!

Finally war created by media on both sides is over. Congrats to new champions. Enjoy the moment guys

CONGRATULATIONS PAKISTAN ON CLINCHING VICTORY!!! GOD BLESS.

Congratulation Team & Pakistan from India!!!

@MMKhan You do realize they played Pakistan and South Africa. You are saying that your own team is a pushover. Well they one the final -- be happy until next time.

Congrats team Pakistan, you were a far better side than us and deserve the victory!

Very well played ..

We appreciate the victory of Pakistan. It was their day. They played really well in all departments of cricket. We acknowledge that we made lots of mistakes. This is cricket. Sometimes we win sometimes we learn. Better luck Team India next time.

I am happy with this. It is time that Pakistan came back to it's true position. India will come back next time. But this is Pakistan's time

Congrats Pakistan, you played beter in all areas [batting and bowling is always deadly]

Great team effort by Pakistan, congrats to the champions , wish ICC & India/Pak can play in Pakistan/India in coming days, well wisher from India

Very well deserved victory, Pak was on top all through the game, congrats! meanwhile life gets back to normal in India :)

@MMKhan pakistan, sri lanka, sout africa?! seriously bro?

Indian here. congrats to Pak team. Played good cricket and deserved to win from batting, fielding and of course bowling perspective. No.. 8th team beats all the higher ranked teams on way to lift the trophy. So stats and predictions dont matter. I hope this brings about a change in the cricketing environment in the country that has faced quite a few challenges in the recent past, like no home series etc., Hope quality of cricket triumphs over everything else. Again kudos

Well done green-shirts. Keep it up and hang on tough. Please don't get complacent and carried away in the days to come. Stay calm and move on.

A welcome victory after such a long time.

Congratulation dear..Enjoy your victory...

CONGRATS! Fantastic display of the great uncertainty of the game. Pakistan did prove that. Sincere congratulations from this part of the sub continent.

Very well played Pakistan, the way they came out in the tournament after loosing the first match is really awesome, an young breed of world champions are in making .. this will inspire many Pakistani youngsters definitely ...

@MMKhan Wanted to say you're so naive, but no you're stupid really! bet # not so educated, you're understanding of the game is bonkers!

Great pictures. Thanks.

@Bhupinder Singh Arora Good to see your message.Thanks.

@Shovindra Kumar Thanks.

@My_View_Indian_HINDU Thanks

@Ali Shadab Khan's only mistake was he consistently tried to attack the batsman by pitching the ball inside the line of the stumps. Hardik Pandya is a mighty hitter with excllent footwork convetted Shadab's deliveries into half volleys and lifted them outside the boundary line.

I really appreciate all the positive comments from my Indian friends across the border. It shows the maturity and big heart despite so much negative propaganda from media on both sides. I think we should all enjoy the spirit of cricket and joy that both teams provide to world cricket! Thank you all! Love from Pakistan.

a win but this will wipe out any further wins for the next twenty years. this is the problem with the pakistani team

Congratulations Pakistan totally outplayed India. Was disappointed with the Indian fans who left the stadium after kohli wicket had gone. You should support your team win or lose. Felt sorry for Dhoni and Yuvraj who have done so well for India in the pass. Now they have to put up with the nonsense of added security outside their houses because they lost 1 match . Sad

Great cricket played by Pakistan! Greetings and best wishes form India. Loved to watch the team in all round action. Sustainability is the key. India lost nerves was evident from the collapse of their batting.

Well done, Safaraz carry on. Great team work. A historical victory Team Pakistan need this for long time.

Hearty congratulations to Pakistan. Fake war like situation on a cricket ground created by over enthusiast media on both sides was defeated by great cricket. Both the teams played good cricket throughout the tournament and the better team on the day won. Special mention for Amir. He did take away the chance from us. Well played men in green

Congratulations Pakistan. Really Well Played. Amir's spell caused the big damage to Indian batting. But no worries. Indians will be more alert next time and lets hope to have a tough and more entertaining match next time again. :-)

Fantastic performance.

As an India, I would feel bad if Pakistan loses. the way they shown their emotions after winning are priceless. Congrats.

India was actually very over confident which was bound to loose in the big game.

Our Son in law won, we are happy for our in laws

i want pak and india relation ship should improve for common people connect. the only concern is terrorism and kashmir spoils the relationshio since british raj. i want to travel lahore from madras to see the culture of pak from south indian point of view.

amir and hassan played wonderful cricket through out the series. well done pak. now, i just remember statistics/records is for numbers, it does not have weakness and strength of the day match. long live pak and india culture and heritages.

Congrats to Pakistan !!!!!!!!!!! Well deserved victory for playing good cricket. I think the youngsters of Pakistan made the difference. The Indian team had experienced senior players but they lacked the much needed motivation to perform under pressure. I hope the Indian selectors will realise it and do the needful...

@MMKhan , though I don't watch cricket but i know a something about cricket. Its, "cricket is a game of uncertainty " and looks like inspite of watching so many matches still you don't know this simple thing. By the way this is not end of Indian cricket, i am sure our team will return this one day. Congratulations Pakistan...!!!

Both India and Bangladesh do not want to play with Pakistan , but in the semi-final they both team were desperately fighting to play with Pakistan in the Final . What a double standard . Syed Naseem Ahmed

@ripan Thanks for showing big heart and respect for the game. Yes!! this is competitive and why it should not be but in the end its just a sport.

Congrats on a well deserved victory. As an Indian, the loss in the finals hurts, but we have always been a fan of Pakistani cricket too. I was personally sad that Amir made such a poor choice at the start of his career and the world was deprived of some quality bowling show. But it is heartening to see his quality comeback. We have been a fan of Amir's bowling we want him to do well. Hasan is shaping up well too and PAkistani bowling is in right hands with these two. Concentrate on your bowling and keep doing well. Junaid's not bad either. Whew. What a performance. Respect from India. MMKhan you can go to hell along with Aamir Sohail.

I was Born in India and I am an Sprituslist .I love India I was ' n Haridwar and Rishykesh.I was also in Pakistan.Lahore and Karachi I love people from both these countries.it do know .Pakistan turned out to be a best team in the India V Pakistan s in the I C C Championship final. Well done Pakistan

NICE !

Reading positive comments from both Indian and Pakistani fans is a pleasure. It's a sport and should be taken as a sport. Every team playing on international level is great no better or worst teams. It is all about who plays better on the day. Enjoy my Indian and Pakistani brothers and sisters and spread love for a better future

@MMKhan thanks

@Disparate Thank You Sir, from southern India
