Lets face it rivarlies are build and maintained when both teams are compeitive and can counter punch one another. With India winning all the ICC event matches in my opinion this is no longer a legitimate rivarly its just one team dominating the other. Its has become more of a political drama than a competitive sporting event.

Like it was in the 90s.
 
Yes Pakistan has always had the rub on India. It has a better head to head record against India overall, at home, at neutral venues and even in India. And in both tests and ODIs.

So you're right it has historically been a one sided rivalry
 
Yes it has been one sided in favour of Pakistan until a couple of years ago
 
I don't consider it a true rivalry because of the sheer difference between the quality of the teams.

In cricket maybe.In World of sports hard to say as we desis rarely show any interest to any outside sport other than cricket. In recent years lots of uni boys and girls have started watching football but they were clueless in the 90's.

Only other sport i myself watch are boxing and MMA. They too have limited fanbase here in pak & india.

Yes, it "has become" very one-sided. However if Pakistan win tomorrow, then it will be back.
 
Pakistan will blow India tomorrow and then I hope the OP has the guts to come to this thread again!

Did you read the op properly? Did he talk about overall history? You guys only have standard answer.last 10 yrs. Your team has been thrashed by India nearly 70% of the matches. He says rivalry has become one sided.
 
Hoping for us to register our first win after a 5 match losing streak, I think we're going to break it tomorrow.
 
72-52 :)


Yes it has always been one sided.


15-2 in ICC trophies and 3-2 in champions trophy coming up this sunday, brace yourself, BLUESTORM :kohli2 is unstoppable, you will be destroyed in the most brutal, one sided thrashing in the history of this sport :srini
 
Yes .
Pakistan leads 90 to 62 across formats .
India with all its population and resources has been an embarassment . This comparatively strong period in Indian cricket is nice and surprising to see .

Socialist India didn't value performance enough, and Indians generally don't do JAMODIs. However, welcome to the 21st Century. This is the new performance driven India with its world class firms and cricket team. The will continue to dominate for the entire century.
 
India has invested in domestic structure and that is paying off right now, IPL is the major contributor to the current structure.
Players know how to handle the crowd and main events pressure.

On the other hand Pakistan totally depends on natural talent and ability of young guys. That's the reason every young guy inducted in the team performs initially but fails when he gets found out and due to a poor system can't work on his flaws.
Secondly all these young guys consider themselves heroes just after performing in one or two innings and they lack the hard work require to sustain in the international team.

Whenever young guy comes in any other team he performs initially then work on his flaws in order to survive at international level.

That's the main reason Pakistan isn't able to perform consistently.

So back to the topic, India is miles ahead of Pakistan but Pakistan can win any other odd game because of their mercurial nature.

Spot on.
 
Do Indians even consider Pakistan as their rivals anymore, most Indians I know, can't even name two players from Pakistan. That's not how rivalries are supposed to be when one team just give themselves on platter for us to devour them, no matter how good Pakistan may have been in the past, but they have been awfully weak for past decade against us and matches have been one sided for as far as I remember playing against them, except for 2012 series when they performaned really well and we need more of that Pakistan to reignite the rivalry. Hoping for a close game tomorrow. Hope Pakistan is up for challenge and give us the kind of final we all want.
 
72-52 :)


Yes it has always been one sided.

Lols, can't believe they even think about creating these threads looking at the overall record between the countries.

How did you arrive at that? Did you add India's t20 wins into pakistan's account ? :yk2

It is just made up numbers. The real record (if you really care about JAMODIs etc.) is 67-84.

True, this match has been extremely one sided. I mean this isnt even close to being a contest.
 
One match and the hidden teeth and claws are out,arey yaar agreed OP created a bad post but it is only 1 match!If you want to prosper then PK need to be more mature
 
What is the point of this OP now he will vanish from this forum for next 6 months.

Honestly what a loser.
 
Sure looked one sided today.


Gotta give it to [MENTION=78395]BlackThunder[/MENTION] for seeing the absolute thrashing that India were going to receive before the match began.

You should have a good look at urself. All along you guys have been seaming that Pak cannot beat india, a no 7 side cannot get kohli out cheaply, and look what happened! Its time u realize you guys aren't that good, if not Pak then eng would have beaten this rubbish side easily.

Last CT India won by beating ENG, this time Pak going to Win. Enjoy the win ... don't be bitter.
 
One sided rivalry. India should really try to keep up.
 
Now that Pakistan after numerous heartbreaks have broken through and won a ICC event match it certaintly brings some life to the rivalry. Now the question still remains can Pakistan break Indian strangle hold in WC matches or will India continue its World Cup domination over Pakistan in WC19.
 
India with an extra billion population has never been a dominant force against Pakistan, and even in the last decade, in ODIs, they played 21 matches of which Pak won 9/lost 12, which is quite ambiguous as, apart from the latest Champions Trophy triumph, these wins also include a 2-1 (3) series win in India, as recently as 2012/2013, where the two won matches were dominated by Pakistan (even though not with a 180 runs margin in an ICC tournament final.) This is not the definition of "one sided" at all.

Think with our guys it was more of a mental block however after this match the new generation won't have the scarring so would hope for some much closer matches.
 
Where is that "toecrushed" guy? This is a great thread :D

Well it was one of the most brutal and one sided thrashings in the history of the sport so you got that part right
 
Whats record for last 10 years ? I think its 60-40 or is it 70-30 for India ?

Don't be lazy. Go and read the posts and you'll find out.

History and currently we are the best side.
In terms of talent there is absolutely no comparison.
1.2billion vs 200k and infinitely more money and better investment in first lass...

Disgraceful
