The best India game in ODIs I've ever watched. The pressure was high following India's performance throughout the whole Australian tour till the last warm up game where our players left a slight sign that they were back in the form but that wasn't enough though. There were two ordinary questions been discussed would India win or would India lose and the breaking of the winning streak(that is losing) was really been taken seriously by many. World cup's first face-off to a team like Pakistan was even more pressurizing and I felt it until we got the 5th wicket... Hell that seriousness that I never did smelt before for a ODI clash which eventually is a least meaningful to me than tests. I'm jubilated that we kicked-off with a strong victory.Today was the best experience I ever had watching Ind vs Pak match.

Pakistan Cricket's New ABCD -
A For = Akmal
B For = Ball
C For = Catch
D For = Drop
Just like a feeling that come after completing a task under pressure. I know in truth I didn't need to a job, but it was a highly joyous moment when India won. In recent years we've won few games with the similar background, in Delhi 2012 against Pakistan after being 2-0 down, the champions trophy fixtures and the final when the board and the team was dealing fixing issues. So the pressure was up this time as well after being a winless team in 8 consecutive games, and basically it was Indo-pak thing and a world cup match after all.Really? It was a good win, but to say this was the best India ODI match ever !! I think that is overselling it.
Correct me if I am wrong but in last word cup we beat SA in quarter finals I guess.Next job to break the streak of SA. We never won against them in WC.
