Kapil Dev speaking on TV ahead of the U19 Semi-Final between Pakistan and India:
"Whenever India and Pakistan are mentioned together, then the pressure of the game is something else"
"There is a different mindset in public, media and players when such matches happen"
"I would ask the players to play their normal game and not take pressure"
"Indian U19 players are more experienced as the Pakistan U19 players have not played that much U19 cricket"
"Based on how they have been playing so far, I feel that the Indian team are better on paper and are also playing well so far, but Pakistan under 19 should never be 'under' estimated"
"Watching young Indian players bowling at 140kph+ shows me that Indian cricket has taken a new turn (for the better)"
"A lot will depend on the fielding of both teams as to which team fields better"
