National spotlight falls on VHP leader Vinod Bansal’s explosive take on the upcoming India-Pakistan World Cup battle, branding it a clash of cricket purists versus saboteurs. Posting on X from New Delhi, he gloated over Pakistan’s capitulation after futile bids to derail the tournament.
Bansal drew parallels to Ram’s Lanka conquest on Shivratri eve, writing: ‘Pakistan booted Bangladesh slyly, but now lines up for Indian thrashing.’ Polling followers, he pondered a preemptive Pakistani apology and invoked divine intervention for victory.
He meticulously outlined India’s World Cup dominance—unbroken since Sydney 1992 across 16 events, minus 2021 Dubai—now culminating in Colombo. Rallying Suryakumar-led aggressors against Salman Agha’s wilted Pakistanis, Bansal predicted a Super 8 rout.
Context: Bangladesh’s safety refusal triggered PCB backlash; clarity emerged post-Sri Lankan President’s nudge. Group A frontrunners, both 2-0, see India ahead on NRR, Pakistan chasing.
Sunday’s 7 PM IST Colombo spectacle awaits. Bansal’s words amplify the frenzy, merging faith, history, and cricket. Beyond the pitch, it tests resilience in a rivalry laced with politics, promising unforgettable drama and potential turning points for both squads.
