  T wo ICC Cricket World Cup titles, Two ICC World Twenty20 titles, One ICC Champions Trophy title - What more needs a team to be called as Champions? From mid 1970s to the early 1990s cricket without West Indies was just a loaf of bread without butter. Still the names Sir Garfield Sobers, Gordon Greenidge, Brian Lara, Clive Lloyd, Malcolm Marshall, Sir Andy Robert, Sir Curtly Ambrose, Michael Holding, Courtney Walsh and Sir Viv Richards act as synonyms to cricket.    But gone are those days, now bread alone is equally delicious as with butter.    They recently won ICC World Twenty20 (2016) but are just above Afganistan in ICC ODI rankings at 9th.

Image
     T he Pakistani team vanquished the arch-rivals India by a mammoth 180 run difference to clinch the ICC Champions Trophy title for the first time. They were just relentless in their run to the trophy after their first match. With that they are in the elite of teams who have won all three major ICC events.     The Indian skipper Virat Kohli was full of praise for the Pakistani side in the post match presentations.
