LONDON: Giving his respect to the Green Caps, Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik said on Tuesday that Pakistan is a good team and he is expecting a good match between the archrivals on June 4.
Speaking to Pakistani journalists, he said: “In the last match they chased a big total. They are a very good team so I am sure it will be a very good match.”
"As players, we are all excited. We don’t get to play Pakistan too many times these days so whenever we do play a match it's always great fun, great challenge."
Karthik added that Pakistan-India matches make for great memories for the cricketers.
“You make memories in such matches as a sportsman and I am really looking forward to it.”
He said that whichever team will handle the pressure well in the Pak-India match, will get the better opportunity to win the game.
“At the end of the day in a one-day match when we are pitted against each other especially in a Pak-India match where the pressure is so much, it’s all about who can handle the pressure better,” he said.
