Pakistan team reaches India to play semi-final against the Men in Blue – ICC World Cup 2011 news
Pakistan cricket team has reached http://www.senore.com/Cricket/March-c74391.
Both http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 and India won their respective quarter-finals of the mega event and as a result they will take on each other in an all-important encounter which has a lot more to offer than just a game of cricket.
The Men in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 from where they will travel to Mohali so that they can start their preparations for the big game.
There is a lot of hype in the cricket world about the mouth-watering encounter and the fans from both countries cannot wait for Wednesday when the Men in Blue will be up against the Men in Green.
It has been a fantastic World Cup so far which has immensely increased the popularity of the game all around the world and the fixture between India and Pakistan could prove to be a nerve-wracker.
Historically, Pakistan have a big advantage over their Indian counterparts in limited-over cricket but it is completely opposite in the World Cups where India have a clear edge. Both teams have met four times in the past in the global event and India turned
out to be on the right side of the results on all of those occasions.
However, this has been a tournament of change as Australia’s run of 34 undefeated matches in World Cup cricket was ended by Pakistan earlier in the tournament and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mahendra-Singh-Dhoni-c73820 and his men thrashed the four-time World Champions out of the competition
in the quarter-final.
There is going to be immense pressure on both the teams and the one that will hold its nerve better will turn out to be the winner of the encounter. There would be additional pressure on the Indian team as they are the favourites and will be playing against
the home crowd which can be a disadvantage in a big game.
