after eng. and SA everyone was saying..india does not have quality bowling. how come it is expecting to win against pak. ind. bowling is worst.
that you would last 50 overs. you tried against Bangla.. since then you have not lasted even 50 balls. this is do or die match for india. dont throw it away by a rash shot. show some common sense.
Most of the Paki players are new and overall teams doesn't know the strengths and weakness of each other..as they haven't payed with each other barring a few occasions involving someplayers..so not surprised should spring up..All the best Team India

The father of Cricket (England) have joined minnows club. Australia stopped producing outstanding cricket talents a decade back. Once Invincible West Indies has no talent left now.South Africa team has no character left.
This World cup has proved that Cricket is a SAARC game sans the odd NZ.
these hawala Mofos have turned cricket into a mockery with fixing. if left alone they will even fix their wives and daughtersss too... such are these characterless crooks. if match tilts to any side people immediately call it match fixing... under such pressure how can a player perform ? ...every move of his is watched with magnifying lens.... this is sheer paranoia..... i think ICC should ban india and pakistan from world cricket.. then there won't be bookies ..no money no hype and no BS from media. then a sport would truly remain a sport

HEY REDIFF WHY DONT U JUST BAN THIS GUY FROM POSTING WHO KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT CRICKET AND MATCH FIXING, SAYING THINGS READ FROM THE NEWSPAPERS...........:p
this opportunistic media always drumps up the matches ...on either side of the border and fuels the fire. It is no doubt that this match is between arch rivals ...we also know pakis explicitly try to make it look like hindu-muslim. we already have so many divisions and points of contention... why media need to cash in ? if left free these mediapersons will even sell themselves for few bucks more
indian media still sings praise of pakistan ...but you will not see one paki praising indian achievements with the same breadth ...call it slave mentality of indians ...exactly the same mentality why we chicken out to pakis...and they always act like pampered kids
It is unncessary to bring so much politics and probably the stake of a country in this semi-final. It is really unfortunate that the players are put to such enarmous pressure. I feel very sad that one team has to lose.
Whoever playing in the 11, cricket is a teamgame and everyone has to contribute. There is collective responsibility for winning and loosing. Captain should be more responsible as he has role in deciding the team and taking decisions on the field. Cricket is a professional game and there is no scope for favoring any person unnecessarily. Prefer only 100% mentally and physically fit players.
The Euphoria for this semifinal match is highly exaggerated. The players will be little more apprehensive about the out come since this is a knockout match. Inexperienced players will need mental support from the senior players. And the extra pressure because its being played at home ground and ur playing ur enemy nation the fear of failure will be a major concern. And the enemy nation is in terrific form . But India will shine in a manner nobody would have dreamed. India will register a thumping victory over our enemy.
