The India-Pakistan clash: Battle of the pacers or spinners?

[MenInG]

Both sides have some good spinners (ODI versions) so am wondering if the hype about the seamers etc is hiding the fact that the real battle will center around the slow guys?

It will be Indian pacers vs Pakistani spinners. Can't wait to see Shami and yadav bouncing Shehzad and Azhar out.

Both batting units are nothing special.

Indian batting slightly ahead due to Kohli factor. India also has better openers.

It will be a bowling contest. Spinners might not be doing much on these pitches.

Amir/Hasan/Juniad vs BK/Yadav/Bumrah/Shami

Indians will take damage from spinners, while Pakistan will struggle against Indian pacers.

 

[Saj]

Indian pacers look in great form and very threatening.

Also June in England, there will be a bit in it for the bowlers.

Watching today's game, it will be flat as a pancake.

India are the favorite here . Let's just hope the pitch has something for the bowlers otherwise it will become a very boring one sided high scoring game favoring batting. Like today's game .

We are not even going to get a game based on what the weather forecast is saying at the moment.

Forecast says a few showers but not too bad.

Indian IPL specialists vs Pakistan? Shortened will go in their favour

 

[Khwaja]

Pakistani pacers will bowl out India for an embarrassing total.

 

[MenInG]

Well looking at the current game in progress, Aus fast men getting hit about, I suggest Shadab vs Ashwin type contest in the offing.
