Pakistan team is confidence about their performance. As attending preparation match all the team members met a press conference and told to the media men to they all are well fitted for the ODI along with India. During the press briefing, it seemed a new Pakistan, a bunch not prepared to wash dirty linen in public and it made for interesting viewing. Especially how the likes of Sohail Tanvir, Rao Iftikhar, Misbah-ul-Haq, Salman Butt and Abdur Rehman handled the media with laughter and élan.
They are thinking the matches will be enjoyable. Although Pakistan team lost against India during the Twenty20 World Cup Championship but that situation is not important now.
"Pressure? What pressure," asked Misbah, smiling. "We have played here before and enjoy the atmosphere, so why should it be different this time around?" On whether it was a revenge series for Pakistan after their T20 final loss, Misbah, whose final thwack that might have cost Pakistan the Cup, remarked: "There is no revenge sort of thing in our minds…we would like to go out and win every match. Losing is part of the game… I fought from a point where it was a no-win situation for Pakistan. It's plain luck. I panicked towards the end. But now I would try to rectify those mistakes, not to panic in pressure situations like I did in the T20 final."
During the home series Pakistan played a fightable match along with South Africa although they lost both the match test and ODI.
Sohail Tanvir, on his first visit to the sub-continent, said he was taking it as a journey to "see and understand the culture of the country". "The T20 performance has done a lot of good to me. Since childhood, I've always wanted to come and play in India."
The new comer Sohail Tanvir who preformed well during the Twenty20 World Championship against India was telling that he will play a very good cricket with India. He also told that the Indian field will be favor of bowler but he is hopping to do well.
