Shahid Afridi (L) and general view of Narendra Modi Stadium (R) - PCB/BCCIFormer flamboyant all-rounder Shahid Khan Afridi believes that Pakistan should go and play against India in Ahmedabad during the upcoming ICC World Cup. Speaking to a local news channel, Afridi said Pakistan's victory in front of a jam-packed Indian crowd would be more joyous. "Why are they declining to play on Ahmedabad pitches? Does it hurl fire or is it haunted?" Afridi inquired. "Go and play - go, play and win. If these are the foreseen challenges, then the only way to overcome them is through a comprehensive victory. What matters at the end of the day is Pakistan team's win. The crux only and only lies in there. Take this rather positively. If they [India] are comfortable there, you should go, pull a victory in front of packed Indian crowd and show them what you got," he added.Reportedly, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had reservations about playing their World Cup match against India at the Narendra Modi Stadium. But, according to ESPNcricinfo report, Pakistan vs India match will take place in Ahmedabad.
