Pakistan cricket has drastically improved in 2017; from the revival of cricket in Pakistan to lifting the ICC Champions Trophy after overwhelming India in the final.
The efforts of national team were again admired by the International Cricket Council (ICC) when they recalled their favorite moments of 2017 on 31st December.
Unsurprisingly, eight of their top-10 most shared tweets were related to Pakistan cricket — an incredible achievement.
The other two mentions belonged to Rohit Sharma (7th position) for his joint fastest T20I century and Yuvraj Singh (4th position) for his six sixes against Stuart Broad as a throwback.
Here are all top moments of Pakistan cricket shared by ICC:
