It would be a blockbuster semi-final if India plays Pakistan, Ganguly’s huge claim

The former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has supported the notion of an India-Pakistan Cricket World Cup semi-final. With Pakistan, New Zealand, and Afghanistan vying for the final semi-final position, Ganguly wants the Babar Azam-led side to get to the top four level. If Pakistan advances to the semi-finals, they will face table-topping India at Eden Gardens on Wednesday. Ganguly believes that if India meets Pakistan in the semi-finals, there will be no better semi-final.

I want Pakistan to reach the semi-finals and play India. It can’t be a blockbuster semi-final than that, Ganguly said. Ganguly admitted that Men in Blue are playing well, but said it won’t be a surprise if they don’t win the World Cup. No, it won’t be a shock if this Indian team doesn’t win the World Cup. It doesn’t happen in sports like that. The entire nation is happy with the way India is playing, he added.

The way they have played in the 8 games, it appears that there is a big gap from the rest of the teams. I hope they keep playing like this. I don’t think the level will drop so drastically that they will suddenly start playing poor cricket. Fingers crossed, they are looking very good, the former BCCI president stated.

Pakistan should win their remaining matches to finish with 10 points. If New Zealand and Afghanistan both win their next two games to finish with 10 points, Pakistan should end their league stage with the highest NRR among these three teams.
