The cricket fever is at the highest level right now in both cricket-crazy nations; but fans from both sides fear about the a cloudy weather forecast. It has heavily rained already yesterday evening and if it troubles again today; then cricket fans will be deprived of a high-class, thrilling and nail-biting encounter.

There are a few games during which rankings, form, prospects and
position on the points table hardly matter. An India-Pakistan game is one such.
India
is in an extremely precarious position just before the 'clash of the
tournament' with arch-rivals Pakistan. This is not just a do-or-die
battle here but also one to rewrite the World Twenty20's "whatever
little" history books.
The Indian team looked completely out of sorts against Australia and
they now have to quickly address their woes in all departments of the
game when they take on an upbeat Pakistan, who had beaten South Africa
in a thriller, if they want to remain afloat in the tournament.
On the other hand; Pakistan having a pretty good tournament until now, especially after the 'out of the blues' victory against South Africa in their first Super 8 round match.
But, just to remind cricket fans in Pakistan, men in green have never registered a win against India at World Cups, whether ODI or T20, while
India have failed to register even a single win at the Super 8s after
their victorious 2007 WC campaign.
