Thank you legends: Pakistan cricketer's grateful post to Indian heroes

There is a pall of gloom in India after the team lost Champions Trophy final against its arch rival Pakistan. Many memes and social media posts have been expressing disappointment and anger at Team India's 'monumental' loss. But a Twitter post by Pakistani cricketer Azhar Ali will surely bring smile on your face.

In the post, Ali thanks MS Dhoni, Yuvraj Singh and Virat Kohli for meeting with his children.

The gesture is being widely appreciated on social media.

Pakistan registered a remarkable turnaround win after widespread criticism following a 124-run drubbing by India in the opening group match of the tournament. It went on to defeat South Africa and England before their epic final triumph against India.

Hardik Pandya's fireworks were the only entertainment for Indian fans in India's 339-run chase. Pandya smashed 76 off 43 balls.

In humid conditions and on flattest of decks, Kohli decided to field first but his bowlers did not do justice to the faith he had shown in them.

This was Pakistan's first ICC title triumph since their 2009 World Twenty20.
