More clarity:

 

India will play NZ in Wankhede.

 

Pak aren't winning by a margin of 130 runs in addition to the margin with which NZ will beat SL.

Really need to stop posters opening threads with incomplete info. If it is Pak then we play in Kolkata. Seriously do some basic research before opening threads with statement of facts.

He'll struggle in Kolkata too like today. Kolkata suits us much better

I am following the weather in Bangalore very closely. Thursday on which NZ vs SL is there is the last day of the wet streak and it is dry starting in the evening 6pm. So at worst we are going to get a shortened game

in a shortened game, I would give higher chances to SL compared to a full game.

U are assuming Nz winning against SL.  Rightly so.   But there is 60% chance of a washout on that day.   It is Bangalore afterall.

Those Kolkata "intellectuals" will show up in force to support Pak.

Updated forecast is showing less chance of rain and cloudy

Hoping SL beat Kiwis.

People still thinking the wrong way. We need our bowlers to perform the same way and we win. Batters importance has been reduced with this attacks that is blowing away the opposition.

 

Kolkata - We win no matter who we play irrespective of we bat first or second.

 

Mumbai - Only danger is if are chasing a very big total ( 330 or beyond). if we bat first we win. Looking at our bowlers dominance again, we should be able to restrict teams to a decent total and minimize scenario 1. High probability we win.

 

Overall not to worry  PAK, NZ - does not matter. 

 

The good thing about fantastic bowling is you do not fail and ruin a match in 10-15 minutes like 10/3 scenario. Bowling can have a bad period and make a comeback.
