Is it fair to India that they will have four days off before the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025?

[RidiculousMan]

I mean 4 days is a long enough time to break any team's momentum. Is it fair to India that they are getting 4 days off?

What if any Cricketer switch off from Cricket after playing golf? What if someone gets bird flu? Or worse, what if someone gets lost in the Sahara of Dubai while biking?

You are in no position to troll anyone after finishing 4th in a group that has Bangladesh.

As a fan i expected nothing much. Final is a good result. It is better than getting kicked out after one match.

Trolling Indians after coming last in a home tournament after being placed in a group which has eternal losers BD. lol

Best way to troll india would have been if you knocked us out of the tournament and then held the final in Lahore and shown to everyone that India doesn’t matter.

Regarding losing on Sunday, winning and losing are part of the game. And most fans won’t feel bad losing to NZ, SA or WI. Losing to even Pak these days looks more like a fluke loss than something that hurts a lot as we know we will get back to top shortly

Losing to BD in an important match is troll worthy but that seems to be a distant dream now.

Everything is fair in love and war. This is all scheduling blunders nothing more.

 

[Justcrazy]

Nothing is fair in the world my friend. all this schedule was set much before , there is no point in whining anymore. In future also if Pakistan refuses to play in India , a similar situation will arise if Pakistan manage to go deep in the tournament.

Got knocked out in 5 days in your first home tournament in 29 years

Just like how and his team finished last in 2013 in a Champions trophy group that had West Indies.

If the likes of him understood this, Pakistan team would be faring far better.

Now this is interesting. A poster writes something on a cricket forum, how exactly is that related to onfield performances of a cricket team. Plase elaborate.

I said likes of him. Not only him.

I have seen many pakistanis on TV becoming happy because India lost and not bother about Pakistan's performance.

2023 WC finals, India lost. Some ex Cricketers were celebrating on tv program but not bothered about Pakistan's first round exit.

This phenomenon seem to have wide spread affect.

Please refrain from spreading falsehoods. While it is true that many former cricketers have criticized Pakistan’s performance, there are limits to such criticism.

When the final match is being played, the focus should be on the final itself, not on what transpired in the earlier rounds. This is quite normal lol.

In every sport, it is natural for the majority to feel pleased when their biggest rival loses. Do not claim that most Indians were not happy when Pakistan lost to England in the T20 final in 2022, especially those who harbor animosity towards Pakistan, like you. I have no issue with this sentiment. So why do you have issue with some former cricketers celebrating an Indian loss?

The biggest problem I observe is the hypocrisy among many Indian posters here. They express satisfaction that India is not playing the final in Pakistan, yet they are quick to visit Pakistani cricket forums to share their opinions on Pakistanis. Have some decency.

In every sport do rivals allege cheating by the other team. In 2023 WC it was alleged by pakistani test cricketer that India is using a different ball.

In 2024 t20wc someone as respected as Inzy bhai accused India of ball tampering.

There has been accusations of the other team fixing matches to help India.

Are you saying rival former international players do it regularly in all sports?

The focus is on the final to troll Indians? Pakistan was out of a Cup it was hosting. That too in 5 days... This the third straight ICC event Pakistan is out in the first roundm.

First of all, I have no animosity but yes there a sense of hostility because of reasons well known. I was a neutral in 2022, because i may dislike Pakistan team, but i can't support the English team. And i didn't troll pakistanis. They performed better than India in the T20WC.
.
Celebrating is fine. Making stupid accusations isn't. Just saw a video of a Pakistani show, where Maxwell is accused of fixing due to IPL contract.

Isn't it hypocrisy by pakistanis that everything that happens in India is discussed here? How does it matter to pakistanis, what we name a place in India? Who we vote? What are our laws?

Indians can dish it out but cry when they get it back.

Very entitled.

Playing on Pakistan pitch or Dubai pitch is the same because the soil used to prepare dubai pitches were brought from Pakistan. Therefore no such undue advantage for Team India
