Only one day to go and the most awaited match of ICC Champions Trophy 2013 between India and Pakistan will begin. Spectators all over the world are waiting for Saturday's match between India and Pakistan, while Birmingham where the match is to be played has already geared up to witness a marquee battle of two most sought rivals of cricket.
While World Champion India has already made their safe position in the semi-final with two straight wins, Pakistan is no more in the tournament with two consecutive defeats. So, this match will be more about honour and dignity. Pakistan would try to exit from the tournament with a win and heads up, while India will fight to retain its dignity over its arch rivals.
Indian squad has shown great cricket so far and are looking excellent but Pakistan can never be underestimated when it comes to India-Pakistan tie, though Pakistan have been struggling in all parts of the game throughout the tournament.
So, let us hope the match turns to be the biggest entertainer of the year with some good cricket apart from the result.

India : Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni (c & wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Umesh Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ishant Sharma.
