Had some of the best pre match threads for India matches. Great work!

 

@Viper Always loved to read the threads. Your luck brought us lot of joy in the last 3 months. Loved the positivity throughout.

@BlueBee Great pre match thread for Ind-Aus game. Was crucial for our chances

@rett Loved the first semi final thread. Also, the names for each country. Unique idea.

@sscomp32 Miracle win against BD. Will remember the game and the thread where emotions swung that day in the thread

@kruiser Great pre match thread for the opener. Great job and look forward to more match threads.

Great work everyone!

As interesting a World Twenty20, we had some fabulous Match Threads of even non Indian matches. Built up the excitement in ICF. This was my first World Cup in ICF and loved it!

[BlueBee]

ICF is slowly recovering to its older self. This WC was crucial for the resurgence. Well done guys!

Can somebody please explain to me what is the big deal about creating match threads and why people trample over each other for that honor? 

 

Am I missing something?

There is no honor, but it is great if someone takes up the responsibility to open a fun filled, entertaining pre match thread. It builds up excitement prior to the game.
