A CRUCIAL MATCH
INDIA VS PAKISTAN
India’s dressing room
is wavering with thoughts and plans for tomorrow match. The countdown begins. Yes absolutely it is the math between India
and their arch – rivals Pakistan. India will face Pakistan in a crucial match where India not
only has to win the game but also they need to win convincingly and wait for
the Srilankans to defeat Bangladesh as Srilanka has already eliminated out of
the competition. A win and a ray of hope will give India a much better chance
to enter the finals.
Not only this, India
has to win against their rivals Pakistan , and even if Bangladesh win against
Srilanka their run rate will get compared according to the records and the
deserve team will get through the finals who will face Pakistan as Pakistan has
already qualified for the Asia Cup finals.
Pakistan’s
comfortable victory over Sri Lanka has not only catapulted them into the final
of this year’s Asia Cup but also opened up the possibility of a tempting
India-Pakistan final.
India have one match
remaining, against Pakistan on March 18. Sri Lanka, who gave a good account of
themselves in the recently concluded CB series in Australia, have been hit
badly by a spate of injuries to some of their key players. Their hopes of
reaching the final have literally disappeared, although an upset by Bangladesh
will keep them interested.
A year has passed
since their last encounter in the semi-final of the World Cup 2011, and the
possibility of these two arch rivals facing each other twice in the space of a
few days surely is a mouth-watering prospect for cricket lovers. Here’s hoping
India do not disappoint us tomorrow. We would be live streaming of all the
remaining matches. On March 16 it would be India vs. Bangladesh and March 18 it
would be India vs. Pakistan.
