These remarks made by Zaka Ashraf amid the warm reception received by Pakistan's players in India at Hyderabad ahead of the tournament have drawn the ire of both Indian and Pakistan cricket fans, with many expressing their anger against Zaka's statements on social media. Several Pakistnetizens criticised Zaka for his statement. "Shame on PCB chairman on calling India "Dushman mulk* despite a warm welcome from them, zaka ashraf is the real dhusman of our team.

Fans will be hoping that megastars of the Men in Blue, such as Virat Kohli, skipper Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, KL Rahul and Mohammed Siraj keep up with their consistent performances to continue the country's winning streak with Pakistan in 50-over World Cups and come out with 8-0 win against the arch-rivals in the World Cup.

India vs Pakistan: Celebrities like Anushka, Arijit, Sachin to be in attendance in Ahmedabad

Ahead of <keyword id="3658" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="india" source="Orion">India</keyword>'s blockbuster clash against arch-rivals <keyword id="3001" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="pakistan" source="Orion">Pakistan</keyword> on Saturday, some fans have threatened to boycott the match on social media due to Pakistan's involvement in terrorism, once again sparking a 'Boycott' trend and debate that if sports and politics/international relations can be kept separate. Earlier on September 13, an Indian Army Colonel commanding a Rashtriya Rifles Unit along with a Major and a Deputy Superintendent of Police were killed in a gunfight with terrorists in the Kokernag area of Kashmir's Anantnag district. The pictures, and videos of Pakistan players receiving a warm welcome for their matches in the World Cup in India have gone viral after this encounter, with many questioning why Pakistani players are being treated this way when the instances of terrorism continue from Pakistan's side, causing loss of life and property in India, especially of soldiers, security and police forces. The announcement of a pre-match show in <keyword id="5065" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ahmedabad" source="Orion">Ahmedabad</keyword>'s Narendra Modi Stadium, featuring Bollywood singers Arijit Singh, Shankar Mahadevan, and Sukhwinder Singh by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (<keyword id="6354756" type="General" weightage="60" keywordseo="bcci" source="Orion">BCCI</keyword>) also made plenty of fans furious. It is notable that no opening ceremony was held for the ICC Cricket World Cup, being hosted in India for the first time ever. India and Pakistan have not played a bilateral series since 2013 and India last travelled to Pakistan for the 2008 Asia Cup. Since 2013, India has only played Pakistan in ICC tournaments like the T20 World Cup, ICC Cricket World Cup and ICC Champions Trophy, and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) tournament, Asia Cup. The viral media of Pakistan players receiving a warm welcome and announcement of the pre-match show in Ahmedabad ahead of the IND-PAK clash led to many social media users voicing out their displeasure, threatening to boycott the show and the match itself. "What BCCI and <keyword id="210899" type="General" weightage="60" keywordseo="jay-shah" source="Orion">Jay Shah</keyword> have done in the honor of the Pakistan team will not be tolerated at all. Our soldiers are fighting bravely against Pakistan-supported terrorists on the border. #BoycottIndoPakMatch #BoycottIndoPakMatch," said a user. "Cricket match is nothing infront of our Soldiers. Enemies are always enemy. Pakistani doesn't deserve this type of welcome. #BoycottIndoPakMatch #INDvsPAK #IndiaVsPakistan #AUSvsSA #INDvPAK #INDvsAFG #INDvAFG #RohitSharma #TrainAccident #ViratKohli #BoycottIndoPakMatch," said another user. India and Pakistan will both want to continue their winning momentum Coming to the match, India have begun their World Cup campaign with comprehensive wins over Australia and Afghanistan, while Pakistan have also emerged victorious in their first two matches against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka. Fans are counting on the likes of Virat Kohli, skipper Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, KL Rahul and Mohammed Siraj to come up with the goods again as the hosts go to battle against their bitter rivals. India squad: Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya (vc), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Ravichandran Ashwin, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav. Pakistan squad: Babar Azam (c), Shadab Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique, Mohammad Rizwan, Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Salman Ali Agha, Mohammad Nawaz, Usama Mir, Haris Rauf, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Wasim.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and elected to bowl first against India in a high-octane Group 2 match in Super 12 of the ICC Men's <keyword id="44040" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="T20-World-Cup" source="Orion">T20 World Cup</keyword> at the Dubai International Stadium here on Sunday. After winning the toss, Azam said that Haider Ali was left out from the 12-man shortlist for the playing eleven. "We'll look to take early wickets and put pressure. Dew is also a factor. We have had good practice sessions and are confident about our preparations. Pakistan's bowlers are known to trouble other teams but I am confident about our batting too." India skipper Virat Kohli said Rahul Chahar, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shardul Thakur are the four non-playing members of the squad. "We are pretty happy with setting the target. We would have bowled first too, but the toss is not in your control. We are pretty balanced with our squad and you need to be prepared for it. We need to stay as professional as possible. We need to stay focussed on the processes. Everyone watches it closely all over the world. We need to ensure we don't get too emotional. The pitch looks very different. Evenly rolled and there is no grass at all which was the case during the IPL. We expect the pitch to stay good all through and set a good total."

ICC T20 World Cup 2021: India to bat first as Pakistan wins toss and elects to field

Dubai, India batsmen <keyword id="6355454" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="kl-rahul">KL Rahul</keyword> and <keyword id="6354486" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="virat-kohli">Virat Kohli</keyword> have maintained their respective second and seventh spots in the <keyword id="6355164" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="ICC">ICC</keyword> T20I rankings for batsmen which got updated on Monday. India are slated to take on England in five T20Is, following the culmination of the ongoing four-Test <keyword id="45633" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="series">series</keyword>, part of the ICC <keyword id="713106" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="world-Test-championship">World Test Championship</keyword> (WTC) and the duo will get a chance to gain some points. The rankings got updated following the culmination of the three-match series between Pakistan and South Africa which the Babar Azam led-side won 2-1. South Africa spinner Tabraiz Shamsi has grabbed a career-best second position among bowlers while Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan has raced to 42nd place in the rankings. Shamsi's series-topping six wickets, which included a haul of four for 25 in the final match, helped the left-arm wrist-spinner overtake Australia's Adam Zampa, England's Adil Rashid and Afghanistan's Mujeeb Ur Rahman to within three points of top-ranked Rashid Khan of Afghanistan. Rizwan too benefited from heading the run-aggregate in the series with 197 runs, which comprised knocks of 104 not out, 51 and 42. The string of impressive scores won him the player of the series award and lifted him a whopping 116 slots to a career-best 42nd position. Haider Ali is another Pakistan batsman to advance, moving up 13 places to 137th position while fast bowlers Shaheen Afridi (up five places to 11th) and Hasan Ali (up 14 places to 82nd), and spinners Mohammad Nawaz (re-entered at 64th) and Usman Qadir (up 129 places to 92nd) are the bowlers to progress. For South Africa, Reeza Hendricks's 98 runs in the series have lifted him seven places to 17th and David Miller's 116 runs, which included a 45-ball 85 not out in the second match, sees him gain seven places to 22nd position in the list led by Dawid Malan of England. Fast bowler Dwaine Pretorius has moved up from 121st place to 51st, after matching compatriot Shamsi's six wickets in the series, a huge gain considering his previous best was only a 107th rank. There is no change of positions in the ICC team rankings after the series. Pakistan have gained one point but remain in fourth position with 260 points while South Africa have lost one point but remain fifth with 251 points.

Rizwan Ali <a href="http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/12/07/natos-little-noticed-but-important-new-aggressive-stance-on-cyber-weapons/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote in Foreign Policy</a>. "The more aggressive approach was intended as a strong message, primarily to Russia, that NATO intends to use the cyber capabilities of its members to deter attacks in the same way it uses land, sea, and air weaponry."The use of cyber weapons will now be looped in with NATO's existing military command structure, which can deploy troops and conduct other military operations. NATO's commanders will not be able to develop cyber weapons on their own and will only be able to get a hold of the technology on request from member nations."This will strengthen our cyber defenses, and help integrate cyber into NATO planning and operations at all levels," NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SNEOJn1qg4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said during a press conference</a> last month.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image">REUTERS/Francois LenoirNATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg speaks during a <keyword id="6355005" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="News">news</keyword> conference at the Alliance headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, October 25, 2016.</div></div></div>The US and its European allies <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/r-us-eyeing-russia-urges-nato-allies-to-harden-cyber-defenses-2015-6" target="_blank" rel="noopener">have been urging</a> NATO to boost its cyber defense operations for years, as countries like Russia and China ramp up cyber attacks in an attempt to destabilize Western interests.In 2008, a year after Russian-sponsored hacks into the websites of Estonia's parliament and prominent broadcasters, NATO established the Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCE) to promote best practices and improve cyber information-sharing among NATO members, as well as to conduct research and training in cyber defense.A total of 17 nations, including the US, France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Turkey, and the UK contribute to the center, which is located in Tallinn, Estonia's capital city.But the landmark CCDCE appears to have done little to deter Russia's aggression. In the last two years, Russia has <a href="http://www.latimes.com/world/europe/la-fg-russia-election-meddling-20170330-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tried to interfere</a> in elections in the US, France, Germany, and the Netherlands.It is believed that the Kremlin has continued its attacks, in large part, to retaliate against sanctions imposed by the US and the European Union after Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014.Although NATO did not directly call out Russia during its announcement of its new cyber policy in November, the timing of the change suggests the international alliance is growing worried about increasing attacks."We must be just as effective in the cyber domain as we are on land, at sea, and in the air, with real-time understanding of the threats we face and the ability to respond however and whenever we choose," NATO's Stoltenberg said. <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/life-camp-humphreys-closest-us-military-base-north-korea-2017-12">What life is like on the $11 billion US military base right next to the North Korean border</a></h3> <div> </div> </div>
