India play Pakistan in a warm up game today - Wednesday - 3rd June. I think, to be honest, this is going to be a real gem of a match. With both Pakistan and India, looking to get the better of the other will really go all out after each other. It will really be a cracker of a match. Pakistan has already been defeated twice by India in the first edition of the ICC World Cup of T20. The first time was during the league stage where India won the match in a super over via a bowl out. But I think, it was the second time that really mattered the most - the finals of the T20 WC. India then became the first Champions for the first time of the inagural World Cup of 20-20. As far as this current match is concerned, I think, it will be a wait and watch type. Let's keep our fingures crossed and hope that India wins. I am saying this because, India is currently under a spate of injuries, which India doesn't want at this stage. Pakistan will really take this opportunity to unsettle India's confidence.
Though the lack of form of Gambhir and Dhoni can give some sleepless nights for India, along with the lack of form of Sehwat. To add to it even Zaheer Khan is still not fully fit and as per Mahi's statement he can't even play in the first game against Bangladesh at the weekend. Time doens't seem to be on India's side this time around. But each game is a new game and each day is a new day. Saying this only can we give ourselves some respite and say that Team India can overcome all the obstacles and get on top.
