The competition between India National Cricket Team and the Pakistan National Cricket Team is generally considered to be one of the most hot-blooded sport rivalries in the world. It started in 1952 when Pakistan paid a visit to India to play a Test series and since that time matches between the two teams have attracted colossal international media attention. The political tensions between the two countries have also served as a form of additional emotion and pressure on each encounter. These games are highly anticipated by fans, since they usually provide dramatic endings and performances of a great legend player. The Timeline of India National Cricket Team vs Pakistan National Cricket Team in the middle of this historic rivalry shows the presence of a number of iconic moments including the 1996 world cup quarter final and the 2007 ICC T20 World Cup finals. Although bilateral series are being held very infrequently nowadays, every time these teams come to face in ICC tournaments or in Asia Cup the enthusiasm can hardly be described.
