Couldn't care less. Won't watch the match. I haven't watched an India-Pakistan match in last 10 years. Too much hype not much quality.

With due respect to all the posters who simultaneously opened the same thread, this type of threads are nothing but cringefest

So I wish both teams well.

I didn't know you were a Singh. I just assumed you must have had bengali ancestry since you support BD team. FYI, there are Singhs in Pakistan as well, and in Afghanistan too.

I will support India mainly for this reason. I do not want Pakistan to go above Bangladesh in ranking.

This is worse than having to choose between The Cavs and the Warriors. Actually this is just like the NBA finals for me.
India is like the Warriors. The most annoying fan base in the world that think they've invented the sport. A team full of really talented players who are hard to root for because of their arrogance (curry/kohli).
Pak is just like the Cavs. Yet another terrible fan base, but with much trouble at home. Once an industrious land, its streets are now reduced to chaos, violence, and suffering. And that's just Cleveland lol. But Hasan Ali is definitely the Lebron of this tournament.
India makes it really hard to root for them. But I can never, ever, root for Pakistan. So India it is, but I'm really hoping for rain to win this one.

India. Pakistan is too close to our ranking points and the more they lose, the better for us.

Curry Kohli comparison I get.
But to call Hasan Ali Lebron James? I don't think Hasan Ali will ever get a better compliment than this. Cleveland is nice city now btw,a very happening downtown. And even with its own share of problems, it is still a thousand times better than any Pakistani third world hell hole you can point on the map. But I do love the attempt to compare basketball and cricket. I was thinking of writing a piece, 11 NBA stars who would make it to a cricket XI.

What's with all the hate for Curry and the Warriors? Owner Joe Lacob is a douche bag and made idiotic comments last year, but Steph shouldn't be blamed for that! He's one of the most unselfish superstars in the league. The only other humble superstar is probably Kawhi. Steph has been making less than what Phil pays Joakim Noah, which is unthinkable, and this allowed the Warriors to keep the team intact the last few years. They built the team the right way by making smart decisions with their draft picks. KD is really the first big superstar they added in free agency. They've put in place the most unselfish, efficient, beautiful system in the league and every game they play is a pleasure to watch.

LOL why? I'm eagerly waiting for today's match. Even during BD's match I don't get this much excited. India - Pakistan match is something else.

I hate both the countries and teams. These two countries have mistreated us and still do. I'd have liked this match to be washed out. I'm very disappointed that Bangladesh lost the way they did against India. Pakistan, mind you not a better team than ours, is performing much better against the same team. Bangladesh should be ashamed of themselves for giving away that match against India.

The amount of sour grapes in this thread is laughable, it's pretty clear why BD fans have such bad reputation.
I for one will stand up to say credit to both teams where it is due and best of luck to both our fellow subcontinental teams to win the CT 2017.
