India-Pakistan is one of the fiercest rivalries in cricket and the amount of emotions that flow in the game can be witnessed on every platform where India and Pakistan have a game. Politics and the unstable security situation in Pakistan has led to the recent tours of India and Pakistan being cancelled. This has left the cricket crazy fans of both countries started to see their respective stars battle it out in the middle with bat and ball and therefore whenever India plays Pakistan in any tournament, the emotions run high and it leads to a situation where ugly fights happen. Hence we bring to you 5 reasons why fans of both countries should keep their differences aside and enjoy the game as one.

1. It is not a war!! Just a game:

Just remember, it is not a war. War is fought in battlefields and not in cricket stadiums and making it feel like the fans are ready to fight at fall of every wicket or at every six that is hit. We get it that you want to celebrate your team getting a wicket or hitting a six, but can you not shove that celebration in the face of your rival fan.

Even on social media, tweets and troll posts degrading players and teams sometimes get out of hand. Things are said, memes are posted that troll each other. Though everyone wants to show their patriotism via social media for their team, it should be said that everything should be kept a bit civil.
