Bollywood’s legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan was at his creative best on Tuesday to mark the ICC Champions Trophy semi-finals line-up.

The veteran actor took to Twitter to sum up the scenario for the four nations which made the cut to semi-finals of the ICC event.

“Cricket Championship ’17, 4 semi finalists, 3 from once one country, ruled once by the 4th SF,.. who shall rule now?” Bachchan tweeted with his caricature in four different colours.

The four countries to qualify for the Champions Trophy semi-finals are: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and England.

The three teams from the subcontinent were one country before partition separated them. India, Pakistan and Bangladesh were once ruled by the Britishers for almost two centuries prior to independence.

England and Pakistan will square off in the first semi-final at Cardiff on Wednesday, while India and Bangladesh will meet each other in the other semi-final on Thursday at Birmingham.
