3. The Battles Within
India-Pakistan clashes are always made up of smaller battles fought within the game. It will be interesting to see how these battles form this time around with a number of new faces present in both teams. Rohit Sharma, who is a willing hooker and puller of the cricket ball will face Md. Irfan, the 7ft 1 inch giant with a penchant for delivering chin music. On the other hand, Virat Kohli who is never shy of a battle, will have to counter the left handed swing bowling of Junaid Khan. MS Dhoni will take on the spin wizard that is Saeed Ajmal and these plethora of battles within will ensure that the spectator is rooted to his seat through the course of the game.
