Bilal | 9 years ago | Reply Indians should thank the great leader Mohammad Ali Jinnah for creating Pakistan otherwise there would have been no such sensation in cricket of world’s two most arch rivals. It is a rivalry that dominates the game of cricket and has its roots in history. The fraught relationship between the nuclear-armed nations and their people is the backdrop to the high drama on the playing field. For some, cricket is just a game but for Indians and Pakistanis, it is serious combat. Who wins, does'nt matter, the sensation is priceless.
