The cricket world is mad about the Indo-Pak match but Indian captain M S Dhoni, is cool and composed as he always is. He has downplayed the match hype and has urged his players not to get distracted due to it.

Dhoni remarked, “Well, we know the kind of media hype India-Pakistan matches generate. We are not getting involved in all this. We need to know what we are expected to do and focus on that.”

He was of the opinion that hype is a part of game and it is not affecting them. He pointed that it’s a big event and the team has good preparation for it.

Dhoni’s feels that his poor form in batting, is due to less opportunities and not due to the captaincy pressure. He pointed that everything does not go in your favor always. He does not seem to be worried by his form.

The captain confirmed that the entire squad is fit for selection. He insisted on maintaining intensity for the 100overs in entire match for winning.
