The T20 World Cup is only 5 weeks away so we thought, how can we get the juices flowing and get excited for another ICC event?

And the answer was to reminisce some of the most memorable and impactful and to be honest just some of our favorite T20 internationals.

Again please do send in some of your favorites, we will release an episode once a week right up until the World Cup starts.


India vs Pakistan in 2022 at the MCG was one of the greatest spectacles in the history of our game. And then to have an incredible game on top of that was the cherry on top.



Pakistan batted first and made 159/8 off 20

Shan Masood made 52* off 42

Ifttikar Ahmed 51 off 34

Hardik 3-30 off 4

Arshdeep 3-32 off 4



India chased it down with 4 wickets in hand on the last ball

Virat Kohli 82* off 53 balls

Hardik 40 off 37 balls

Haris Rauf 2-36 off 4



Now let’s talk about this match as a spectacle because if you were selling the game to the casual fan, this is the game. 90,000 people packed in the G going crazy. World Class fast bowling from both sides. And maybe the greatest white ball player of time, playing one of the best innings of all time. This match had everything didn’t it?
