i am pretty sure u wont like this answer and itsnt worth the effort, but still i will answer it.\n\nis india afraid of pakistan??\nthe answer is yes\n\nwhy should not we be?? the country has got a nuke. the country is ruled by its military.  next change may bring in religious fundamentalists to power,\nso why should not we be afraid.\n\nunlike pakistan we cant allow our citizens to be killed by another country(as the usa continuously raids targets inside pak and keeps on killing their citizens)\n\nwe are not foolish enough to send our soldiers to a war which is not necessary(which we can win in the end) and loose their precious lives.\n\nif u take the above factors into consideration yes we are afraid.\n\nu know i was always weak at history but seems u never even studied it!!\n\ncan u please enlighten me which war ended in equality\n\n1948:- when india gained control of kashmir\n\n1965- when pakistan had to run around in the world to find a negotiator\n\n1971- when 90000 of ur soldiers surrendered to our army and needless to mention u lost east pakistan\n\nnow we come to kargil\n\nfirst of all can u kindly tell me whether it was pakistani military in kargil or just mercenaries.\n\ni am not disagreeing with u when u say that it was pakistani army.\n\nits just that the govt of pakistan didnt have the guts to acknowledge those people as its soldiers.\n\npakistan is really a very strong country one which cant even claim back the bodies of its soldiers and give them decent burial.\n\nif pakistan is really so strong then why does it have to send its soldiers in disguise,\n\ni mean 1948:-tribals who somehow had mortars\n\n1999:-mercenaries who somehow had got hold of pakistani army identification.\n\ni am gonna skip the china part thats another story\n\ni am not hoping for a best answer but if u think it is worth it i will only be too glad   ;)

To Answer Farukh...\nIndia NEVER started war with Pakistan, Pakistan attacked India\n1948 Occupied Kashmir.\n1970s Pissed off that India helped Bangladesh attain independence.\n1990s Occupied Kargil.\nWe also have\na. Democratically elected government since independence and are the only former British colony never to have Military Rule since independence.\nb. Most stable government.\nc. World's 4th biggest economy after the US, Japan and China.\nd. Secular.\nWhile Pakistan has\na. No democratically elected government.\nb. Had so many coups that its diffcult to count. Always been ruled by Military Dictatorship.\nc. Economically not that great, since it diverts 80% of its GDP towards arms and ammunications.\nd. Highly intolerent nation. For EG: Yousuf Youhanna, a good cricketer was stripped of his Vice Captainacy and was forced to convert to Islam.\nPakistani leaders are well known though.\nJinnah was responsible for thousands of deaths pre-independence because of "Direct Action"\nThe Bhutto Family is so corrupt... and so was Nawaz Sharif.\nAnd what can I say about Pervez bhai...\n\nAs for expanding territory, in the 1973 war, Indian Army had advanced upto Lahore, and if they wanted, they could have occupied it.\n\nI agree, India is not a perfect nation but it is still way better than Pakistan, and yeah... check your history first.\n\nAnd as for accepting, India was the First Country to recognize Pakistan, gave Rs. 980 million (1948 value) loan to get it started (Not repaid till date), and co-operated during the intense partition negotiation.

I disagree. Friend, cricket is a funny game. Miracles do happen. :) Yes, Pakistan are the favourites. Deficiency of fast bowlers will hurt India. But then again, you never know with cricket.

Are maamu, jo khud maraa padaa ho wo kya marne maarne ki sochega ?\nPakistan cant dare so much !\nIndian should make strong relations so that we can fight with our common international enemy USA.

Well Man! I am from Pakistan but that does not mean I have any grudge. My true assesment or spontaneous view is that because of the situation of geo-politics and ofcourse the relationship between Pakistan and India, nobody want to be a part of situation where Pakistn and India (God bless us) again in any tense situation, I mean when any country think about investment in defence sector of these two countries they have to think closely or stop thinking.\na layman view

India is one of the most exotic places in the world that offers such a rich and ancient history, culture, music, art, religion and traditions.\n\nIndia gained its independence from the British rule in 1947 and is a fairly "young" republic. But with a population of over a billion people today, the country is plagued with poverty that seems insurmountable due to the corruption in government that remains unchecked, a lackluster economy, and perhaps an aftermath of their customary caste system.\n\nThere has been on-going border tension between India [majority Hindus] and its neighbor, Pakistan [majority Muslims] in that sub-continent part in Asia.\n\nOne thing I admire among its people is their manner of greeting each other--with both palms together in prayer form as they nod to greet--which symbolizes their 'RESPECT TO THE DEITY WITHIN' the other person. Ain't that so great?\n\nMore people should practice that tradition openly... And perhaps we will have a much better world to live in!

Of course, as in ANY country, there are those who think and those who do not. For those who do, are we thinking about the Kashmir issue? I believe this is what you are asking, not just "Do we think"?\nAre you asking men to take a side on the issue?\nAre you asking whether we think the US is already covertly involved?\nAre you asking if men just do not care, or perhaps implying such by the way your question is worded?\n\nThere are several countries concerned with the outcome, not the least of which are India and Pakistan.The disputed territory of Kashmir shares borders with India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and China. Kashmir was partitioned as a result of the Indian Independence Act of 1947. About 65% of the territory is administered by India, the remaining 35% by Pakistan. So, all bordering countries will certainly have some concern. Throw in nuclear testing a few years back, and every thinking person's neck hairs rise a little.\n\nAmericans tend to get concerned and "think" a little more when political leaders say, "we need to go in and help", or "so-and-so committed crimes against humanity and we need to be the  universal police". Then the thought process tends to be, "yeah, we need to go in and whoop em in three days, it will not take long."\n\nIt will be interesting to see how many US men have given this any serious thought. I do note your use of the term men versus people and I do wonder why it is worded so. Are you from some place that relegates women to a lesser role? Perhaps even one of the involved countries?\n\nRegardless of the  outcome this time around, you know there will be another conflict down the road:\nUS aids Pakistan when Russia invades Afghanistan, then pulls out. \nUS has strong ties with India economically. \nIslamic fundamentalists are now very active in Pakistan\n\n - all the stuff that will tend to polarize American men's opinions, right or wrong.

Yes not only in cricket and hockey but in each and every field of sport the combined team will be victorious. Not only in sports, but in economy also India would have regained its past glory.\n\nSee the Germans.  they have united.\n\nCan the governments India/Pakisthan/Bangladesh/Nepal think over and take a merger decision in the interest of people of their country?  Every ordinary citizen of these countries welcome merger decisions.\n\nThere will not be Kashmir problem.  There will not be a political problem in these countries.  Ecomnomy wise also it will be a wise decision.\n\nCome on Politicians. Take merger decisions in the interest of the people and world peace.

Bangladesh is allied with every country in the world except for Israel. It beleives the Israeli country should not exist because they are occupying the land of Palestine. Bangladeshis can not travel to Israel and vice versa. \n\n Bangladesh has diplomatic relations with Pakistan ( due to religion) but after the genocide committed by Pakistan in 1971, Pakistan is still a great enemy in the Hearts of Bangladeshis.\n\nChina is a great ally at the moment. So is the USA. \n\nAs for India, we share a Love-Hate relationship. At times, we are best friends and at times we burn each others flags. However, at the end of the day, we are like brother countries. \n\nBangladesh also has ties with countries in SE Asia, Afica and even Chile in South America.

trust me....lots of new genaration of neplease hate india..coz time and again it tries to interfair in our poltics through Sughali Sandhi (treaty after anglo-nepal war)\n  Honestly, nobody like the country which interfares in ur country....if i cound i would say..get the hell out of our way.\n  If india cannot help..it should not come in between our home issue and at least not give dublicate weapons as INSAS (which didnt work, and almost 100 army were killed by moist).

Are you even serious????!!??? Pakistan may have nukes, but they still lack credible delivery means. Their borrowed/stolen technology from China & N.Korea still ain't good enough to take a warhead across the continents. In any case, there's no chance of Pakistan ever getting into a confrontation with the US of A. Why, those international pariahs live off the mercy of the US. If they hadn't to cleverly ally with them in the war against terror, Pakistan by now would have been an international non-entity.\nPakistan's survival depends on it towing the US line, so chances of a war between them and the US can exist only in the wildest realms of imagination.

Both India and Pakistan are cricket-crazy countries. When you consider the population of the two countries and nationals of the two countries living in other parts of the world, the number is close to 1.5 billion. Hence, more viewers. Also, there is a lot of interest from viewers who are not Indians & Pakistanis, because of, dare I say, the political situation. A third possible reason is the fact that both the countries didn't play against each other for a while, and everyone wants to see two teams with great passion for cricket, square off against each other.
