I am least bothered about the outcome. Yes it’s an India Pakistan match and still I say result doesn’t matter. In my view both teams are winners already. Who would have imagined that these two young subcontinent teams will make it to last 2? Especially after their disastrous World cup campaign early this year! India loosing to Bangladesh and Pakistan loosing to Ireland had touched their lowest point in cricketing history on the same day. But, here we go. Here are the two teams that will be fighting for the championship title of new format of cricket which cricket pundits recognize as ‘Future’ of cricket.
From India’s point of view, it’s their fearless, nothing to loose attitude which brought them to this stage. Indians have to watch out as they have won their all matches in this tournament batting first, where as Pakistan has been winning both ways. Best part is both teams have beaten Aussies! On the big day, I am sure both teams would love to bat first to avoid pressure.
I am getting a feeling that if India wins this world cup, people will be itching to discuss how Indians achieved this fate without the big 3 names! Do we require them really in team? Why cant more youngsters must come to the party… and this may just prompt the big 3 to hang their shoes from shorter versions of the game soon.
So here we are on the dream day of every cricketing lover. An IndoPak Final. You cannot get anything bigger than this. Everybody busy discussing about this including my cab driver. (He was thinking Ganguly is Indian captain so far…) Anyway I say again, result doesn’t matter today. So today its not just chak de India but its really going to be Chak De Cricket!
