                               Fitness and health have been the priority of humans since times existed. In this modern era where unhealthy binge eating and super comfortable level of life (all thanks to technology and its inventions) fitness and healthy living have also gained prominence. With the world becoming a smaller place people have access to numerous commentary, fitness diet plans, exercise routines online.

Thus, it made me inquisitive to explore this area to see how many times it has been accomplished in the T20 world cups so far. Turns we have a pe...
