Irfan Pathan hit a winning four to take the team past the finishing line. Ambati Rayudu led India Champions batting as he played a brilliant knock of 50 off 30 balls, while Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Yusuf Pathan and Yuvraj contributed with an innings 34, 30 and 15, respectively.

After the Indian Champions clinched their maiden WCL triumph, fans took to their social media handles (formerly Twitter) not just to congratulate the legends in blue but also to urge the all-rounder Irfan Pathan to troll Pakistan with a tweet, asking how Pakistan is going to spend their time on Sunday after the defeat.

For unversed, when India defeated Pakistan in the 2022 T20 World Cup, Irfan took to Twitter handle and wrote, "Padosiyon Sunday kesa raha???"

Here's how fans remind Irfan Pathan to troll Pakistan

It was the revenge final for India Champions as they lost to Pakistan Champions in the league stage of the World Championship of Legends. India had a great start to the campaign with two consecutive wins against England and West Indies before they suffered three-match winless streak after losing to Pakistan, Australia and South Africa.

India were on the verge of getting knocked out of the tournament but their better Net Run Rate than South Africa Champions helped them qualify for the semifinal by finishing fourth in the league stage of the tournament.

In the semifinal, India Champions put on scintillating all-rounder show to thrash Australia Champions by 86 runs. Skipper Yuvraj Singh (59), Yusuf Pathan (51*) and Irfan Pathan (50*) significantly contributed with fifties to help India post a total of 254/5 in 20 overs before their bowling restricted Australia to 168/6.

Though India had a moderate tournament, but managed to end their campaign on high with WCL title triumph.
