We are listening to the same thing for the past many years: Sehwag on Pakistan's dubious record against India in World Cup events

Virender Sehwag recently spoke about the hype and debates that surface whenever India faces Pakistan in a World Cup match over the past few years. He reckoned that T20 was one format where Pakistan stand a chance to bag their first-ever victory over India in a World Cup match.

Speaking about the upcoming contest between India and Pakistan in a chat on ABP News, Sehwag said:

"We are listening to the same thing for the past many years. And the buildup is always the same that it's a huge game and it is. This topic is always in the discussion that Pakistan hasn't won a match against India in the World Cup and the debate about whether they can win this time is the same too."

He added:

"But if we talk about the current scenario and this format, then I think this is where Pakistan always has more chances because they might not play that well in the longer 50-over format. In this format, even one player can defeat any team. But still, Pakistan hasn't been able to do that, we'll see what happens on the 24th."

India have won both their practice games against England and Australia in a comprehensive manner. Considering their current form and squad strength, India will start as one of the favorites to win the trophy.
