England Physically Challenged Cricket Team will face Pakistan in the final of the five-nation's ICRC T20 International Cricket Tournament for people with physical disabilities at Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protisthan (BKSP) Ground-3 on Thursday at 11:00am. The winner will ink the history becoming the first ever champions of this kind of international tournament for the physically challenged people. The tournament is considered as the stage to prove the worth of the physically challenged people to the world. So undoubtedly both the teams will put their all efforts to achieve the pride for them and their nation as well. Both the teams secured the final berth with six points each winning three matches out of four matches each. England may take inspiration from their victory over Pakistan in the group level match while Pakistan may show zero tolerance to take the revenge and emerge the first ever title. However, host Bangladesh ended the tournament securing third place with four points from four matches where they won two and lost two matches. On the other hand, India and Afghanistan finished at fourth and fifth position respectively with two points each winning one match apiece. International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has organised the first edition of the meet with the co-operation of the Youth and Sports Ministry, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and BKSP.
