Absolutely, only one more game to lift the Champions trophy, Kholi and Team has done outstanding job to reach final. All credit goes to every individuals who contributed from their bowling, batting and fielding performances. India is far better than Pakistan team, hence India should play their natural gam to beat Pakistan like they have done in their earlier match. All the best to Kholi and Team India!!
To make bowling more penetrative and aggressive , Kumble & Kohli will have to forgo their obsession with Pandya . With Rohit, Shikhar, Kohli, Yuvraj,Dhoni & Jadhav in the team , his batting may not be needed . Jadeja & Ashwin can also bat . Umesh yadav should be in team .

Looking at the way the wickets behaved hitherto, it is necessary to have Pandya in the team. He is capable of scoring, say @ 200% strike rate and if he stays for two overs, it would be enough to demolish teams like Pakistan.
Virat needs to be praised for not hyping up an India -Pak final as something earth shattering and treating it as any other final. He has struck the right balance and fans must not over- hype if we win and not get depressed if we lose.
This time it will not be a walkover for India as Pakistan are reenergized & invigorated to thrust a massive defeat on a complacent India. Pakistan are not Bangladesh who just showed up to be defeated. They bat like whiplash cobras, field like tigers & bowl like lions. India may get mauled with this new found aggression.

Their military also had shown the same type of aggression in last three wars and were ultimately overpowered by the Indian army. One can not be overconfident and should not underestimate the opponent but as proud Indian will wish India win the Cup. None of the Pakistani will ever wish their team defeated by Indian and everyone will say in favor of their team unlike in India, some people has more love and affection for Pakistanis.
