This is the problem with the current Pakistan team (other than a lack of talent)

Imran, Javed, etc would have loved coming to the rivals home and plundering. Now this ground complains about not hearing some lame pop song from the 90s

I know Javed was past his use by date in the 96 WC but he sucked against India in the 92 WC too.

Side question. Did all those fans who booked hospital beds for this weekend get discharged in time to catch the game?

Apparently some people opened up their homes to accommodate visitors. Knowing the Gujaratis, they would have charged handsome rent.

NZ has some weaknesses that can be exploited by good teams. But I don't see any obvious weakness in SA's setup. Hope NZ play SA in semifinal

If SA lose early wickets they’re a different proposition because they don’t bat deep. I’d say that’s the weakness. But it’s only a weakness if you can actually get the top guys out!

Pakistan are just not good enough wrt India. I recall their rivalry decades ago - until 2000 you'd have said Pk were stronger. Since C21, India have surpassed them and in recent years it's a no contest. Can't expect this Pakistan side to win when even stronger sides fudged it.

India will win 8/9 out of 10 times now.
They have the best batting and bowling in the world.

Ehh, india's top 5 are strong and their top 3 inparticular with gill is quality, but their not the best batting lineup in the tournament IMO. The big concern going into the tournament was the form of the hardik and jadeja at 6 and 7 and the long tail that came after that. Hardik and Jadeja haven't been seriously tested this tournament, and as many here have pointed out shadul's number's in ODI recently don't make him much better than shami. This is exactly why I wanted to see marsh take that kohli catch early in the AUS game or kohli/rahul get out earlier then they did. I would much prefer hardik and jadeja get tested in the group stage than in a semi/final after cruising through the group stage.

Pakistan was objectively better than India until about 2001; that’s why the World Cup wins were such a big deal
