It will be, but don't forget that the Indians will be coming into this game carrying the hopes of a billion plus cricket crazy people! If they lose and are knocked out in the first round the repercussions for them at home might be severe!

The Indian fans already started to attack the homes of their players and burn their effigies after their team's loss to BD and god only knows what they will do if India gets knocked out of the tournament on Friday!

So in short, the pressure on India to win Friday's match would be unimaginable and our boys will be aware of this and will no doubt go hard at the Indians!
