It's the big showdown at Mohali today as sub-continent heavyweights India and Pakistan take on each other at the cricket pitch. Pakistan relies on its agile bowling line up with the likes of Umar Gul and Shahid Afridi, while India’s strength lies in its colossal batting line up.
It is easily the biggest match of the World Cup (WC) with unbelievable amount of pressure on both the teams.
It’s like a final before the finals, says ace cricket commentator Ayaz Memon. "One of these two teams, India or Pakistan, is going into the finals but for the entire sub-continent, perhaps the entire cricketing world, this is the match most coveted, most looked forward too."
Memon said on paper India looks the clear favourites to win. “India with its strong batting line up, depth of experience, there has to be a skew in favour India. Having said that, Pakistan hasn’t reached this far in good grace from the other teams. They fought hard they played exceptionally well. They bowled exceptionally well and that I think is becoming the key in this tournament. Teams that have bowled well have succeeded. India is perhaps the only team where the batting has bettered their bowling.” He feels India's bowling has a lot of catching up to do.
