I wish I could write and echo this to every cricket lover in India. I know India has not lost against Pakistan in world cups, but there will be someday that they will lose. The team who plays good cricket and is better on that day will win, it does not matter whether that would be India or Pakistan. For players these games have become just another game, yes the pressure is super hight but one needs to be prepared that every record ends some day.
Given the current political environment which I do not want to discuss at all, its a game where both the countries will go mad if they lose it. The people who will go mad are hardcore chest thumping nationalists. These are not cricket fans like you and me. I worry about the well being of all the players and their family in these environment.
That being said, I hope its a cracker and may the best team win. Does not matter what the record is..
On a side note, I am happy I am part of this forum where we do not have hardcore nationalist ready to thump the chest in the name of being a better nation. All the social media will be deactivated from a day before to few days after the game. The negativity for either team has no place in my life.
