Bat first today

Yajurvendra Singh , Former Indian cricketer

I pray that India wins the toss and bats first as it won't be easy to bowl and field in the afternoon heat. Even chasing any target would add pressure to the side batting second.

India should attack bowlers like Umar Gul and Shahid Afridi who have so far been the best wicket-takers for Pakistan in the tournament.

I also hope that Sachin Tendulkar gets his 100th international century and give us a double reason to rejoice.
