Its very easy for me to say but try n enjoy the whole match......It will be tough sitting amidst supporters from both the sides.............The throats will be sore at the end of it for sure.......

Gud luck to both the teams....

@purple
Very true i too want this to happen, but it will never happen because young breed of both countries are short of values , so situation will worse , it is never going to be improved 🥱. factors like irresponsible goverment,media and moral less and characterless young breed is going to make both the nation a Hell where only devils will live peacefully and good people just live a life like a dead one😕

I agree with you Himanshu and Tejesh, I grew up at the time when Inida and pakistan matches were played all the time, time of Imran khna, Javed Miandad, Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Vishwanath, Bedi, Zaheer Abbas, I am forgetting names, there were only one channel in India and one in Pakistan. People were use to of watching IndoPak matches, they knew how to handle the matches , the success and the failure, now the youths now have not seen that atmosphere. I feel so sorry to see the TV channels on both sides especially now as if we are godforbid heading for war.
Yes honestly India is a better team when you compare but Pakistan has potential as well. I would be sorry if they loose but Inida is on the top these days.

Himanshu I use the same TOTKA, I didnt watch any of Paksitan matches except the Newzeland one !!! and they lost , so even my children knows about it so they dont want me to watch it on wednesday.!!

Sheema Aunty where are you???? The first article was meant for you....I thought you will relate to it more than anyone else....
Copying it here again for you:
http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/507568.html

I am here Tejesh, I am feeling dizzier minute by minute as tomorrow is approaching fastI will not watch the match, that I have decided for sure, will not stay at home, my hubby would entertain his guests he invited, I am going to be at work where nobody is interested in anything interesting !( I work with people with mental illness) so tomorrow I will blend in easily with all the Schizophrenics, Bi Polars , manic depression sufferers.

Oh God aunty really this match is taking its toll on the whole of India's and pakistan's supporters for sure.....On top of that the government has made it a political minefield with IAF being deployed over the entire city of Mohali and Chandigarh....

Media was talking about this match as if it was 3rd world war and government is also supporting their take by doing all what is necessary to make it a battlefield....

Aise mein aap jaise log jo dono side ke supporters se ghire hue honge unkaa toh match nahin dekhna hee best hai...

Way to go aunty.....

No I think fans are much more sensible then these media people and Govts ka kiya khena, they have got this golden opportunity to keep the publics mind away from the REAL issues which people of India and Pakistan are facing on daily basis, corruption, high living costs , joblessness, they both are playing with the emotions of public and flaring it up. Only NDTV ,s Barkha Dutt,s show was talking some sense, Star Plus even showed the KArgil war VDO, I mean what is the point, say it out loud dont beat aboput the bush. In Newyork, my brother with all his Indian and Pakistani friends booked a sports bar to open at 4 am . paid them hefty amount to watch it together, in England so many venues have been booked to watch together, even in Mohali I heard it on Radio people are hosting Pakistani fans in there homes!!! how lovely , these politicians they are good for nothing and the yellow journalism is the reason for so many problems in noth sides of the border.
May the best team win, who ever would win, would win fair and square after playing well, and thats real cricket.
