i said pakistan, half because they were hte first one on the poll, so once again i couldnt be stuffed moving my mouse further down to click on india, and also because they're the underdog...i'm always a sucker for the underdog.

Pakistan for me - still haven't properly recovered from the terrace element c. 2002, and incessant proclamations of everyone in the Indian side's world-beater-ness.

Personally I'd love to see Pathan and Rana Naved-Ul-Hasan taken apart.

Because Pakistan in 2001 were so much better with their "terrace element", weren't they?
At least India's fans behaved.

And that petulant attitude is what makes his team so good at punching above themselves, taking the rough with the smooth, knuckling down and proving people wrong.

I'd like to see Pakistan avenge the defeats (particularly in the ODIs) of last year but I never like seeing India get beaten in India in Tests (except if it's England or South Africa doing it).
So I'd like Pakistan to win the ODIs and, well, maybe to dominate a drawn Test-series. Reckon they've a good chance in the ODIs and frankly I think India will smash them in the Tests.
Could be interesting, though.

Ideally I'd like the series drawn with Tendulkar, Inzamam and Sehwag failing, whilst Butt, Ganguly and Dravid do very well. Nothing personal though.

What do you mean by that? You mean they haven't recovered from match fixing allegation? or you mean to say they haven't recovered from '03 WC's bad result? sorry i wasn't able to get it really.

Well i can bet any amount of money on IKP performing very well and shattering Pakistani weak batting lineup.

As for Rana, he simply doesn't desrve a mention, its not that i don't like him, its just that i do think he's of international class.

Before your time. Basically, it got a lot of people on here immensely annoyed by "fans" of Indian cricket.

Personally I think neither are close, they're both ordinary.
