World T20 Final Man-of-the-Match Closest To My Heart: Irfan Pathan
On the 13th anniversary of India's World T20 triumph on Thursday, former all-rounder Irfan Pathan said that the Man-of-the-Match award he won in the final would always remain closest to his heart, and emphasised that it was special because he had won it against traditional rivals Pakistan.
Pathan also pointed out that when the Indian Premier League (IPL) was launched the next year, in 2008, memories of India's World T20 triumph were still fresh in the minds of Indian fans and they accepted the IPL immediately and made it a resounding success with their patronage.
